Which is the third major gas among atmospheric gases?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: Argon
In dry atmospheric air, nitrogen is the most abundant gas, oxygen is second, and argon is generally the third most abundant, at about 0.93% by volume. Carbon dioxide and ozone occur in much smaller proportions. Water vapour can vary greatly from place to place, so it is not normally ranked as the fixed third major gas in dry-air composition.
