Which greenhouse gas is 25 times better at trapping heat than carbon dioxide?
methane
Greenhouse gases are -trapping gases?
Heat-trapping gases.
What is the trapping of the heat by the atmosphere?
greenhouse effect
Why does CO2 get most of the attention when there are so many other heat trapping gases?
Carbon dioxide gets most attention because:It's the main gas that is contributing to anthropological global warming, that is, caused by human activities.It's the main gas that we can do something about. By reversing deforestation and by reducing our dependence on fossil fuels and moving to renewable energy we can slow or stop global warming.Methane is the next heat trapping gas that we can do something about, but carbon dioxide is the most important.
What is this trapping of heat called?
The trapping of heat by the atmosphere of Venus is called the greenhouse effect, just as it is on Earth. Venus is the second closest planet to the sun and the temperature on the planet reaches 870 degrees Fahrenheit.
Which greenhouse gas is 25 times better at trapping heat than carbon dioxide?
methane
Greenhouse gases are -trapping gases?
Heat-trapping gases.
Is plastic sheeting a good heat insulator?
No, but trapping a thin layer of air (or other gas) between parallel sheets is.
Are all greenhouse gases equally as effective at trapping heat?
No, each gas differs and works more effectively compared to others.
What supports the idea that mass is conserved in a reaction that produces a gas as a product?
Trapping the gas and measuring its mass...
How does a greenhouse gas work?
Long wave radiation emitted by the sun reflects off earth's surface and is absorbed by heat trapping gas in the atmosphere. Nitrogen and oxygen do NOT absorb infrared radiation, but CO2, CH4, and H2O DO trap heat.
Does the sentence scientists studied the trapping of gas in the atmosphere has a gerund of gerund phrase that functions as the direct object of the sentence?
YesThe gerund is trapping. The phrase is the trapping of gas. Yes it is the direct object.
What is the trapping of the heat by the atmosphere?
greenhouse effect
Importance of carrbon dioxide and water vapor in the air?
It's a well known greenhouse gas. It's known for trapping most of the earths heat.
How does different types of insulation work?
It prevents heat loss by trapping in the heat.
Why does CO2 get most of the attention when there are so many other heat trapping gases?
Carbon dioxide gets most attention because:It's the main gas that is contributing to anthropological global warming, that is, caused by human activities.It's the main gas that we can do something about. By reversing deforestation and by reducing our dependence on fossil fuels and moving to renewable energy we can slow or stop global warming.Methane is the next heat trapping gas that we can do something about, but carbon dioxide is the most important.
What is the trapping of heat by an atmosphere called?
global warming
