MQ-8

Sensitive for Hydrogen Gas
The heater uses 5V.

Search for datasheet: http://duckduckgo.com/?q=%22mq-8%22+gas+sensor+filetype%3Apdf

MQ-9

Sensitive for Carbon Monoxide, flammable gasses.
The heater uses an alternating voltage of 5V and 1.5V. It depends on the gases how to use that alternating voltage. If only Carbon Monoxide is tested, the heater can be set at 1.5V.
The MQ309A (also on this page) is like this sensor, but uses a lower heater voltage.

MQ131

Sensitive for Ozone
The heater uses 6V.

The load-resistor is 100k...200k, which is a lot higher than for other sensors. This sensor is also very sensitive. It measures in ppb (parts per billion) where other sensors measure in ppm (parts per million).
