Inhaled air contains the same constituents as the atmosphere which is made up of the following approximately:

78-79 % nitrogen

18 -20 % oxygen

0.93% argon

0.04% carbon dioxide

Air also contains pproximately 1% water vapor which varies depending on local climatic conditions. There are small trace amounts of other gasses too.

Exhaled air, is much richer in Carbon dioxide as less rich in oxygen.
