Not as such... It is a noble gas so does not react with your body if you breath it in. However it is deadly in extremely high quantities (as with all gasses apart from oxygen). ie. if you are in a room with solely neon gas then it would kill you by asphyxiation due to lack of oxygen but apart from that it is not toxic.
EDIT: Oxygen toxicity can occur as well. Extremely elevated Oxygen levels in the air you are breathing and elevated Oxygen levels with elevated pressure levels (such as found under water) can result in hyperoxia. This is a condition that can affect the eyes, brain, and heart. The results include increased oxidation of cellular membranes (destroys body cells), collapse of alveoli within the lungs (lungs fail), retinal detachment (eyes develop problems) and seizures(self explanatory). It should not be assumed that Oxygen is non-toxic merely because you require it for life.
What else can I help you with?
Can whistling kill you?
If you stop yourself from breathing whilst whistling, then yes it can kill you.
Does it really kill brain cells when you breathe in the smell of gas?
Breathing in the smell of gas can lead to symptoms like dizziness, headaches, and nausea due to the chemicals in the gas affecting the nervous system. While it doesn't necessarily "kill" brain cells in the way we traditionally think of cell death, prolonged exposure to gas fumes can have harmful effects on brain function and overall health.
How does mustard gas kill you?
Mustard gas can kill by causing damage to the respiratory system and skin, leading to difficulty breathing, severe burns, and blistering. Inhaling the gas can also cause damage to the internal organs, leading to systemic organ failure and death.
What does fluorescent strips mean?
Fluorescent strips typically refer to long, narrow tubes filled with fluorescent gas that produce light when an electrical current passes through them. These strips are commonly used in overhead lighting fixtures in commercial and industrial settings.
Are neon lights similar to fluorescent lights except that the electron and gas collisions give off visible light?
Yes, neon lights and fluorescent lights both create light through excited gas molecules emitting photons. However, neon lights use neon gas, whereas fluorescent lights use mercury vapor and phosphor coating to produce a wider spectrum of colors.
Why is solar panels better than fluorescent?
because fluorescent has gas in it and solar panels don't :D
Is it cruel to gas dogs in a gas chamber?
I think gas is a cruel way to kill anyone or anything - the most humane way to kill an animal is to give it a sedative so it just feels sleepy and then stops breathing. That way it's not scared like if it's trying to breathe.
What are the risks in growing microbes on a large?
It produces a toxic gas and if inhaled it will kill instantly. So breathing apparatus much be used when in contact with it.
Can a gas kill you if you smell it?
there are many types of gases but if your thinking of gasoline from a gas station,it probably wouldn't hurt you if you accidentally smelled it or smelled just a bit but if you were intending to smell a lot it might hurt your breathing or make you sick but i don't know if it would kill you or not.if you are thinking of any gas,some gases might harm you greatly or even kill you but it depends on the gas
What gas is in the fluorescent tube?
Usually it's mercury vapor.
Why does a plasma ball make fluorescent light bulbs light up?
Anything that excites the gas in a fluorescent will make it light. Static electricity from the carpet will cause compact fluorescent to light.
What is the primary gas that humans exhale when breathing?
The primary gas that humans exhale when breathing is carbon dioxide.
Which gas controls your rate of breathing?
it not a gas it your brain
Which state of matter is breathing on a window?
During breathing a gas is expelled.
What is the purpose of a fluorescent light starter and how does it contribute to the functioning of a fluorescent light fixture?
A fluorescent light starter is a small device that helps initiate the flow of electricity in a fluorescent light fixture. It contains a small gas discharge tube that helps create the initial spark needed to ionize the gas inside the fluorescent tube. This ionization process allows the electric current to flow through the tube, causing the fluorescent coating to emit light. In summary, the purpose of a fluorescent light starter is to kickstart the flow of electricity in a fluorescent light fixture, enabling it to produce light efficiently.
Can whistling kill you?
If you stop yourself from breathing whilst whistling, then yes it can kill you.
What color does argon produce in a fluorescent tube?
Argon gas by itself does not produce a specific color in a fluorescent tube. It is typically used as an inert gas filler in fluorescent tubes to prevent degradation of the electrodes and enhance the performance of the tube. The color produced in a fluorescent tube is usually due to the phosphor coating on the interior of the tube, which emits visible light when excited by ultraviolet radiation emitted from the tube's gas discharge.
