Discussion
Which of the following gases is the most toxic?
Answer: D
Carbon monoxide is the most toxic of these.
It binds to haemoglobin about 240 times more strongly than oxygen does, forming carboxyhaemoglobin, so the blood can no longer carry oxygen. A few hundred parts per million can be fatal, and because the gas is colourless and odourless there is no warning.
