Dangerous chemicals contained in cigarettes:
- Tar: is a general term for more particles resulting from cigarette smoke. The particles contain chemicals including nitrogen oxides, carbon dioxide and carbon monoxide. Tar is brown and has a bad taste, stain teeth, fingernails and lung tissue. Benzpiren tar contains a powerful carcinogenic hydrocarbon.- Carbon monoxide is an odorless gas that fatal in high doses to take the place of oxygen in the blood. Each red blood cell contains a complex protein called hemoglobin, oxygen molecules are transported around the body stuck or hung protein. Carbon monoxide binds to hemoglobin more than oxygen. This means that a smoker's heart must work harder to oxygenate the brain, heart, muscles and other vital organs.

- Metals: cigarette smoke contains dangerous metals including arsenic, cadmium and lead. Many of these metals are carcinogenic.
- Radioactive compound: cigarette smoke contains radioactive compounds are carcinogenic.
- More than four thousand chemicals in cigarette smoke are chemically active and cause fatal changes in human body.
- The harmful chemicals in cigarette smoke are tar, carbon monoxide, nitrogen oxide, hydrogen cyanide, metals, ammonia and radioactive compounds
