Not really sure what you're getting at. If your lawnmower engine is a 2-stroke then you need a mixture of oil and gas to run it.

If the lawnmower has two compartments one for gas and the other for the oil, then put gas in the gas and a 30w type oil in the oil compartment. Simple as that. If you have an engine with only one compartment then you'll need to check on the manufacturers suggestions which is usually 40:1 or something close.

What happens if you put chainsaw gas in you lawnmower?

You can cut down trees with your lawnmower. Warning: Do not actually try to cut down a tree with your lawnmower. More than likely, the gas in the chainsaw is mixed with 2-cycle oil. If your mower also has a 2-cycle engine, nothing will happen. If your mower has a 4-cycle engine, the engine will probably smoke (bluish in color) until the oil is burnt up during combustion. At worst, the oil in the 2-cycle oil/gas mixture will foul up the spark plug and you will probably have to clean it pretty often until the oil is burnt up.
