Best Answer

Many chemical compounds present in Earth's atmosphere behave as 'greenhouse gases'.

The natural GHGs are:

  • carbon dioxide
  • methane
  • water vapor
  • nitrous oxide

The artificial or man-made GHGs are:

  • chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs)
  • hydrofluorocarbons (HFCs)
  • Perfluorocarbons (PFCs)
  • sulfur hexafluoride (SF6).

There is no chemical reaction which allows them to increase the retention of solar energy, just physical absorption and release of heat. This process allows the Earth's atmosphere to heat up.
