A greenhouse gas (often abbreviated as GHG) is a gas that both absorbs and emits radiation in the infrared range, commonly called thermal radiation or heat. When present in the atmosphere, these gases trap radiation in the form of heat, causing a warming process called the greenhouse effect. The presence of four major greenhouse gases, namely water vapor (H2O), carbon dioxide (CO2), methane (CH4) and nitrous oxide (N2O) in the Earth's atmosphere keeps the average temperature of 15º C (59º F), whereas without the greenhouse effect the average temperature would be a frosty -18º C (0º F).
the gases are CO2,CH4,N20
Greenhouse gases and a nasty smell
sulphur dioxide.
Burning ethanol releases greenhouse gases.
burning coal releases "greenhouse gases" which can be toxic and effect the environment
The greenhouse gases contribute to the greenhouse effect. Greenhouse gases are inescapable.
Oxygen is not a greenhouse gas. It deceases the greenhouse gases.
Greenhouse gases must have three atoms, so gases like hydrogen (H2) and Oxygen (O2) are not greenhouse gases.
The glass on the greenhouse stops temperature from leaving or entering like the gases do to the earth.The atmospheric gases are called 'greenhouse gases' based on the idea that the gases 'trap' heat like the walls of a greenhouse do
The greenhouse effect warms the gases in the atmosphere.
Greenhouse gases are naturally occurring gases but by increasing the concentrations of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere we are contributing to global warming.
Yes. The greenhouse gases trap the sun's heat.
Greenhouse gases keep the earth warm.Too much greenhouse gas is causing global warming.
Water vapor, carbon dioxide, methane, ozone and nitrous oxide. They are known as 'greenhouse gases'.
Non-greenhouse gases are all gases except the greenhouse gases. Greenhouse gases are those that can absorb and emit infrared radiation.The most abundant greenhouse gases in Earth's atmosphere are:Water vapor (H2O)Carbon dioxide (CO2)Methane (CH4)Nitrous oxide (N2O)Ozone (O3)CFCs
two greenhouse gases are carbon dioxide and methane
CFCs (chlorofluorocarbons) are greenhouse gases. They also destroy ozone.
