Some gases are responsible for heating of atmosphere (green house effect). Identify from the following the gaseous species which does not cause it.
- \(CH_4\)
- \(O_3\)
- \(H_2O\)
- \(N_2\)
The Correct Option is D
Solution and Explanation
Among the given gases, the green house gases which are responsible for heating the atmosphere are \(CH_4\), water vapour and ozone.
Nitrogen is not a green house gas.
Therefore, the correct option is (D): \(N_2\)
