Gases are emitted from a variety of sources including industrial processes, transportation, agriculture, and natural sources such as volcanoes. These emissions can contain pollutants that contribute to air pollution, climate change, and other environmental issues. Regulations are in place to monitor and control these emissions to protect human health and the environment.
The word "emitted" means to release or give off something, such as light, sound, or gases, often in the form of radiation or particles.
The two main absorbers of radiation emitted by Earth's surface are water vapor and carbon dioxide in the atmosphere. These gases trap heat and contribute to the greenhouse effect, which helps regulate the Earth's temperature.
Greenhouse gases interact with visible light by allowing it to pass through the Earth's atmosphere. When sunlight reaches the Earth's surface, it is absorbed and then re-emitted as infrared radiation. Greenhouse gases trap some of this infrared radiation, preventing it from escaping back into space and leading to the warming of the Earth's surface.
A nuclear power plant primarily emits water vapor and small amounts of carbon dioxide during its operation. Radioactive gases, such as noble gases like xenon and krypton, can also be released during certain operational events, but these are typically controlled and monitored to minimize environmental impact.
Yes, radiation can occur in all three states of matter: solid, liquid, and gas. In solids and liquids, radiation can be absorbed or emitted by the atoms and molecules. In gases, radiation can also occur due to interactions between gas molecules and electromagnetic radiation.
gases emitted during volcano eruptions are basically oxides of shulphur,etc

The two main gases emitted from volcanoes are water vapor (steam) and carbon dioxide. These gases are released during volcanic eruptions along with other gases like sulfur dioxide, hydrogen sulfide, and carbon monoxide.
Water Vapor and Carbon Dioxide
The primary greenhouse gases emitted into the atmosphere include carbon dioxide (CO2), methane (CH4), nitrous oxide (N2O), and fluorinated gases. CO2 is mainly released from burning fossil fuels, while methane primarily comes from agriculture, landfills, and natural gas production. Nitrous oxide is emitted from agricultural activities and industrial processes, and fluorinated gases are synthetic gases used in various industrial applications. These gases trap heat in the atmosphere, contributing to global warming and climate change.
What are the prinipal gases that are emitted into the atmosphere.
CO2 or Carbon Dioxide from the gasoline being emitted from the car exhaust.
True. The first elements to be identified were mainly gases, such as hydrogen, nitrogen, oxygen, and others. These gases were identified during the study of gases emitted by various chemical processes and reactions.
Water vapor constitutes 70 to 95 percent of all eruption gases
Mainly carbon dioxide is emitted. Other than that So2, No2 etc
water vapor. These gases are greenhouse gases that absorb and re-emit the infrared radiation emitted by the Earth's surface, trapping heat in the atmosphere and leading to the greenhouse effect.
Greenhouse gases primarily trap infrared radiation emitted by the Earth's surface. When sunlight reaches the Earth, it is absorbed and re-emitted as infrared radiation. Greenhouse gases, such as carbon dioxide and methane, absorb some of this infrared radiation and re-radiate it in all directions, including back towards the Earth's surface, contributing to the greenhouse effect and warming the atmosphere.
