Answer:
Carbon monoxide (CO) is a poisonous, colorless, odorless and tasteless gas.
Although it has no detectable odor, CO is often mixed with other gases that do
have an odor. So, you can inhale carbon monoxide right along with gases that you
can smell and not even know that CO is present.
CO is a common industrial hazard resulting from the incomplete burning of material
containing carbon such as natural gas, gasoline, kerosene, oil, propane, coal, or
wood. Forges, blast furnaces and coke ovens produce CO, but one of the most
common sources of exposure in the workplace is the internal combustion engine.
