### Components Used

1. **Arduino Board**: Choose an Arduino board like the Arduino Uno, Arduino Nano, or Arduino Mega, depending on your project's requirements.

2. **Gas Sensor**: Select the appropriate gas sensor for your application. Common gas sensors include MQ series sensors for gases like MQ-2 for general gases, MQ-3 for alcohol, MQ-7 for carbon monoxide, and MQ-135 for various air contaminants.

3. **Power Supply**: You'll need a power source for your Arduino board and the gas sensor. Typically, this can be a USB connection to your computer or an external power supply.

4. **Jumper Wires**: Use jumper wires to connect the components and create the necessary circuits.

5. **Resistors and Capacitors**: Depending on your gas sensor, you might need resistors and capacitors for signal conditioning and voltage regulation.

6. **Breadboard or PCB**: You can use a breadboard for prototyping, or design a PCB (printed circuit board) for a more permanent solution.

7. **LEDs and Resistors (Optional)**: LEDs and resistors can be used to create visual indicators for gas detection.

8. **Display (Optional)**: If you want to display gas readings, you can add an LCD or OLED display to your project.

9. **Enclosure (Optional)**: If the project is for a real-world application, consider an enclosure to protect the components.

10. **Gas Source**: You'll need a controlled source of the gas you want to detect for testing purposes.

11. **Computer**: A computer with the Arduino IDE installed for programming and uploading code to the Arduino board.

12. **Arduino Sensor Library**: Download and install any required Arduino libraries for your specific gas sensor.

13. **Arduino IDE**: Install the Arduino Integrated Development Environment (IDE) on your computer to write, compile, and upload the code to the Arduino board.

14. **Safety Precautions**: Ensure proper ventilation when working with gas sensors and follow safety guidelines when handling potentially hazardous gases.

### How to do in step by step
>  1.Gather Components: Collect all the necessary components.
>  2.Connect the Gas Sensor:Connect the VCC (or +) pin of the gas sensor to the 5V output on the Arduino.Connect the GND (-) pin of the gas sensor to one of the ground (GND) pins on the Arduino.Connect the analog output (AO) pin of the gas sensor to an analog input pin on the Arduino (e.g., A0).
>  3.Upload Arduino Code:Write or find a suitable Arduino code to read data from  the gas sensor(code is given below ###Code)
**Monitor Data**:
 •Upload the code to your Arduino Uno.
 •Open the Arduino IDE Serial Monitor (Tools > Serial Monitor) to view the gas sensor values.
**Calibration** (if needed): 
 •Gas sensors often require calibration to relate the analog values to actual gas concentrations.
 •Check the datasheet of your gas sensor for calibration information.
**Interpret Data**: 
 •Use the sensor values to detect the presence or concentration of the target gas. You can set threshold values and trigger actions when specific levels are detected.
**Safety Precautions**: 
 •If you are working with potentially harmful gases, follow safety precautions and use the sensor in a well-ventilated area.
**Expand and Build**:
 • Depending on your project's purpose, you can further expand it. For example, you can add an LCD display, LEDs, or other output devices to visualize or signal gas levels.

### Code

int redLed = 12;
int greenLed = 11;

int sensorThres = 400;

void setup() 
{
  pinMode(redLed, OUTPUT);
  pinMode(greenLed, OUTPUT);

  pinMode(smokeA0, INPUT);
  Serial.begin(9600);
}

void loop() 
{
  int analogSensor = analogRead(smokeA0);

  Serial.print("Pin A0: ");
  Serial.println(analogSensor);
  // Checks if it has reached the threshold value
  if (analogSensor > sensorThres)
  {
    digitalWrite(redLed, HIGH);
    digitalWrite(greenLed, LOW);
    tone(buzzer, 1000, 200);
  }
  else
  {
    digitalWrite(redLed, LOW);
    digitalWrite(greenLed, HIGH);
    noTone(buzzer);
