What are the main greenhouse gases starting with a w or a v?

Water vapor and carbon dioxide are the main greenhouse gases.


What makes a greenhouse gas and how does it contribute to the Earth's climate system?

Greenhouse gases are gases in the atmosphere that trap heat from the sun, causing the Earth's surface to warm. This warming effect is known as the greenhouse effect. The main greenhouse gases are carbon dioxide, methane, and water vapor. When these gases accumulate in the atmosphere, they enhance the natural greenhouse effect, leading to global warming and climate change.


What are the gases involved with greenhouse gases?

The main greenhouse gases are carbon dioxide (CO2), methane (CH4), nitrous oxide (N2O), and fluorinated gases. These gases trap heat in the Earth's atmosphere, leading to global warming and climate change.


What are the four greenhouse gases?

The four main greenhouse gases are ozone, carbon dioxide, methane, and nitrous oxide. These gases are said to responsible for the world wide climate change taking place now.


Which of the following gases is not a green house gas?

Nitrogen is not a greenhouse gas. The main greenhouse gases are carbon dioxide, methane, water vapor, and fluorinated gases like chlorofluorocarbons. Nitrogen is the most abundant gas in the atmosphere but does not contribute significantly to the greenhouse effect.


Does nuclear energy produce greenhouse gases?

Nuclear energy does not produce greenhouse gases during the electricity generation process. The main byproduct is radioactive waste, which needs to be stored safely.


What gases are not greenhouse gas?

Greenhouse gases must have three atoms, so gases like hydrogen (H2) and Oxygen (O2) are not greenhouse gases.


What are the global heating gases?

How are atmospheric gases like the gases in a greenhouse?

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


Why are nitrogen and hydrogen are the main gases responsible for climate change?

Nitrogen and hydrogen are not the main gases responsible for climate change. The primary greenhouse gases responsible for climate change are carbon dioxide, methane, and nitrous oxide. These gases trap heat in the Earth's atmosphere, leading to a warming effect known as the greenhouse effect.


What does the greenhouse do to the gases from the atmosphere?

The greenhouse effect warms the gases in the atmosphere.


What are the 4 main green house gases?

The four main greenhouse gases are carbon dioxide (CO2), methane (CH4), nitrous oxide (N2O), and fluorinated gases (such as hydrofluorocarbons, perfluorocarbons, and sulfur hexafluoride).
