Carbon monoxide is considered one of the toxic gases, because too much carbon monoxide is in the air, and your body replaces the oxygen in your red blood cells with carbon monoxide. This can lead to serious tissue damage or even death. Carbon monoxide is a colorless, poisonous, odorless, tasteless, flammable gas that is slightly less dense than air. Carbon monoxide consists of one carbon atom and one oxygen atom connected by a triple bond. Do you want to know more interesting facts about Carbon monoxide, then just start this quiz.
