Question

Carbon monoxide$\left(CO\right)$ is a poisionous gas.

• A. True
• B. False

Answer 1

The correct option is A True

$\bullet$ Incomplete combustion of fuel like wood, coal, petroleum gives carbon monoxide gas. It is a very poisonous gas.
$\bullet$ Carbon monoxide poisoning is caused by inhaling combustion fumes. When too much carbon monoxide is in the air you're breathing, your body replaces the oxygen in your red blood cells with carbon monoxide. This prevents oxygen from reaching your tissues and organs.
