WHAT IS AIR MADE OF?

Have you ever wondered what makes up the air we breathe? It's a common question asked by many curious kids! As it turns out, the air around us is made up of a few different gases.

The most abundant gas in air is nitrogen. Nitrogen makes up about 78% of the air we breathe. It's an important gas for all living things, and it helps plants and animals to survive. The second most common gas in air is oxygen. Oxygen makes up 21% of the air we breathe. We need oxygen to survive, and it helps us to breathe and stay healthy.

The last gas in air is argon. Argon is a very rare gas that makes up only 1% of the air we breathe. It's a colorless, odorless gas, but it's important for keeping the air safe and clean. So there you have it - the air we breathe is made up of nitrogen, oxygen and argon! Next time you take a deep breath, think about all the different gases that make up the air around us.
