  • Air Composition: Understanding the Gases in the Atmosphere
    The main gases that make up air are:

    * Nitrogen (N2): 78.08%

    * Oxygen (O2): 20.95%

    * Argon (Ar): 0.93%

    * Carbon Dioxide (CO2): 0.04%

    While these four gases make up the vast majority of air, trace amounts of other gases are also present, including:

    * Neon (Ne)

    * Helium (He)

    * Methane (CH4)

    * Krypton (Kr)

    * Hydrogen (H2)

    * Ozone (O3)

    * Xenon (Xe)

    * Water Vapor (H2O)

    The exact composition of air can vary slightly depending on location, altitude, and other factors.
