Which gas ranks third among the main gases of the atmosphere?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: Argon
The governing concept is the relative abundance of major atmospheric gases. Nitrogen is the most abundant gas at about 78%, oxygen is second at about 21%, and argon follows at roughly 0.93%, so option A is correct. Carbon dioxide, ozone, and methane occur in much smaller trace quantities and therefore do not rank third among the main gases.
