The following five are greenhouse gases, the number after the name indicates the equivalent greenhouse gas effect compared to carbon dioxide (the principal man-made greenhouse gas):
Carbon dioxide (CO2) = 1
Methane (CH4) = 21
Nitrous oxide (N2O) = 298
Sulfur Hexafluoride (SF6) = 22,200
Chlorinated fluorocarbons (CFCs) = 1000 to 9000
CFC, Methane, Nitrous Oxide, Carbon Dioxide, Ozone.
There are quite a few examples of greenhouse gases. Among the list include carbon dioxide, methane, nitrous oxide, and sulfur hexafluoride.
Carbon dioxide is a greenhouse gas.
Example of greenhouse gas?
Methane.
no
Yes, gas is a noun. Greenhouse here is an adjective describing 'gas'. Together they make a noun phrase, 'Greenhouse gas'.
Natural gas is a greenhouse gas, methane, and when it is burnt it releases the other greenhouse gas, carbon dioxide.
Yes, ozone is a greenhouse gas. Any gas with three or more atoms in their molecule are greenhouse gases.
Methane.
no
a gas; a greenhouse gas; a compound; an oxide of carbon etc
Yes, gas is a noun. Greenhouse here is an adjective describing 'gas'. Together they make a noun phrase, 'Greenhouse gas'.
Ozone is a greenhouse gas at lower altitudes. It absorbs heat at the ground level.
Nitrous Oxide is the third greenhouse gas.........
No, Ammonia is not considered a greenhouse gas.
Natural gas is a greenhouse gas, methane, and when it is burnt it releases the other greenhouse gas, carbon dioxide.
Yes, ozone is a greenhouse gas. Any gas with three or more atoms in their molecule are greenhouse gases.
Smoke isn't a gas in itself - it's a collection of gases. The composition of smoke depends on what exactly you are burning. Wood smoke, for example, contains a lot of carbon dioxide, which is a greenhouse gas. Most smoke contains carbon dioxide, as well as other greenhouse gases such as nitrogen.
No, hydrogen has only two atoms (H2). Greenhouse gases need at least three atoms, like carbon dioxide (CO2), for example.
Radiation is the form of heat transfer that is caused by the greenhouse effect. Carbon dioxide is an example of a greenhouse gas.
