Which gas is used in decorative lights?

  • (A) Oxygen
  • (B) Neon
  • (C) Hydrogen
  • (D) Nitrogen
Neon is the gas that is most commonly linked to lighting, specifically advertising signs—the "neon signs" that people are familiar with. When a high-voltage current is passed through neon gas at low pressure, it ionizes and gives off a bright reddish-orange light. Other noble gases, such as argon or helium, can be combined to create various colors, but neon remains the norm for lighting.
