About 92% Carbon dioxide, 3.5% nitrogen

78% Nitrogen, 21% Oxygen and 1% water vapour, argon, carbon dioxide and other trace gases.

95% Carbon dioxide, 2.7% Nitrogen, 1.6% Argon, 0.7% Oxygen, carbon monoxide and water vapour

90% Hydrogen, 10% Helium with traces of ammonia, methane and water vapour

94% Hydrogen, 6% helium with traces of ammonia, methane and water vapour

85% Hydrogen, 12% helium and 3% methane

85% Hydrogen, 13% Helium and 2% methane

Probably Methane mixed with nitrogen
