What gases do you exhale?

Answer 1

If the air is clean, you'll breathe in oxygen. If dirty, you'll breathe in polluted air which can damage your lungs. An example of polluted air is car exhaust or second-hand smoke.

.

To more specifically answer the question, the air we breathe is made up of several gases. Air is mostly nitrogen (~78%), and oxygen (~21%), and the remainder is a mix of hydrogen, carbon dioxide, argon, helium, neon, particulate matter, and other gases.

Answer 2

Well you can inhale pretty much any gas, but if you want to know which gasses make up the mixture air, it's about 78% nitrogen, 21% oxygen 0.93% argon 0.038% carbon dioxide and small amounts of other gases. Air also contains a variable amount of water vapor, on average around 1%.

Answer 3

we mainly breath in oxygen and water vapor

Answer 4

Carbon dioxcide You exhale about 79% nitrogen, 15% oxygen and about 5% carbon dioxide. This does not take into account the water vapor or the other gases that make up a minor fraction of the atmosphere.

Answer 5

There are many many gasses in the air we breathe. The main gasses are nitrogen and oxygen. Nitrogen comprises roughly 78% of the air we breathe while oxygen comprises 21% of the air and argon the remaining 1%. There are parts per million traces of many other gases, the greatest of which is carbon dioxide at 300 ppm.

Answer 6

When you exhale, you primarily release carbon dioxide (CO2) along with small amounts of other gases like nitrogen and oxygen. Carbon dioxide is a byproduct of cellular respiration in your body and needs to be eliminated to maintain a healthy balance in your bloodstream.

Answer 7

The gas we take in when we inhale is oxygen.
