Which of the following is not a greenhouse gas?
- Carbon dioxide
- Sulphur dioxide
- Methane
- Nitrous Oxide
Option 2 : Sulphur dioxide
The major greenhouse gases are
- Water vapour – causes about 36% – 70% of the greenhouse effect
- Carbon dioxide (CO2) which causes 9 – 26%
- Methane (CH4) causes 4 – 9%
- Ozone (O3)
- Nitrous Oxide
- Chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs)
Values of radiation absorbed by the greenhouse gases are as follow:
| Gas | Value of absorption in percentage |
| Ozone | 10.2 % |
| Methane | 16.3 % |
| Carbon Dioxide | 56.4 % |
| Nitrous Oxide | 5.4 % |
From the above table it is clear that carbon dioxide absorbs the maximum radiation in the earth’s atmosphere
