Water vapor is the most abundant greenhouse gas in the atmosphere, accounting for somewhere between 1/2 and 2/3 of the total effect. CO2 is the next most abundant.

Which gas is primarily responsible for causing the greenhouse effect?
Although water vapor is the most abundant greenhouse gas, the heat trapping gas that has been increasing most recently is carbon dioxide, and research indicates this gas is the one primarily responsible for measured increases in earth's average temperature.
Which gas in the atmosphere is the second most abundant gas?
the most second abundant gas is oxygen
Is phosphorus the most abundant gas in the atmosphere?
no, nitrogen is the most abundant gas available
What is the abundant gas of the earths atmosphere?
the most abundant gas of the atmosphere is nitrogen with high percentage 78.09
What is the third most abundant gas in earth's atmosphere?
The third most abundant gas in the atmosphere is argon.
Which of these are the most abundant greenhouse gas A Carbon Dioxide B Methane C Ozone D Water?
Water is the most abundant greenhouse gas out of the choices.

What are the gasses in the greenhouse gas?
Water vapor is by far the most abundant, but also the weakest. Carbon dioxide is the next most abundant, but also relatively weak. Methane is quite potent, and after that are halocarbons among others, which are extremely potent but not at all abundant.
What abundant gas are in the atmosphere?
What is the most Abundant gas are in the Atmosphere
Which gas in the atmosphere is the second most abundant gas?
the most second abundant gas is oxygen
Is phosphorus the most abundant gas in the atmosphere?
no, nitrogen is the most abundant gas available
Why is carbon monoxide called a greenhouse gas?
Carbon monoxide is not usually called a greenhouse gas. It does absorb infrared radiation and trap heat in the atmosphere, which is the definition of a greenhouse gas, but carbon monoxide is very reactive and soluble, so its molecules do not remain in the atmosphere for any significant time.Carbon Dioxide is a serious greenhouse gas, not Carbon Monoxide.
Is it true that carbon dioxide is a greenhouse gas?
The most common greenhouse gas for the natural greenhouse effect is water vapour. Man has no control over its levels. When it gets too high, it falls as rain.The most common greenhouse gas responsible for the accelerated greenhouse effect is carbon dioxide (CO2), the high levels of which we are responsible for. CO2 is having the largest effect on the recent increases in global temperature.
What is the abundant gas of the earths atmosphere?
the most abundant gas of the atmosphere is nitrogen with high percentage 78.09
Which is most abundant grrnhouse gas in earth's atmosphere?
Water vapor is actually the most common greenhouse gas. However as it plays little part in global warming, and it doesn't stay long in the atmosphere (It is constantly falling as rain) it is not classed as a dangerous greenhouse gas. It contributes to the natural greenhouse effect which keeps the earth comfortably warm.Carbon dioxide is the Most common greenhouse gas that contributes most to the accelerated greenhouse effect and so to global warming.
Is nitrogen the most important gas in greenhouse gases?
No, carbon dioxide is the most important greenhouse gas, not nitrogen.
What is the abundant gas in the atmosphere?
The most abundant gas in the Earth's atmosphere is nitrogen.
