Yes, the overall density of our atmosphere is indeed affected by what we release into it. The burning of petrol results in the formation of CO and CO2. These gases are denser than our air (which is made of 78% N2, 21% O2, some CO2 and some rare gases and pollutants from cars and factories...) Hence the average density of our atmosphere increases.

Not sure, but it certainly gets dense with all the children leaving school unable to read or write!!

yes the more gas emitted into the atmosphere the more dense it will get

I agree with muffin!
But! you can get a better answer, if you add some details regarding what you're trying to know from your question...
