  • Comparing Gas Densities: H₂S vs. NH₃ vs. CO vs. SO₂
    The heaviest gas out of H₂S, NH₃, CO, and SO₂ is SO₂ (sulfur dioxide).

    Here's why:

    * Molecular Weight: The heavier a molecule is, the denser its gas will be. Here are the molecular weights:

    * H₂S (hydrogen sulfide) - 34 g/mol

    * NH₃ (ammonia) - 17 g/mol

    * CO (carbon monoxide) - 28 g/mol

    * SO₂ (sulfur dioxide) - 64 g/mol

    * Density: While not directly provided, the density of a gas is directly proportional to its molecular weight. SO₂ has the highest molecular weight, meaning it will have the highest density.
