The gas which causes global warming is?
- O\(_{2}\)
-
CO\(_{2}\)
- N\(_{2}\)
- He
The correct answer is: B
Explanation
Carbon dioxide, a colorless gas having a faint sharp odor and a sour taste. It is a greenhouse gas.
Global warming occurs when carbon dioxide (CO2) and other air pollutants collect in the atmosphere and absorb sunlight and solar radiation that have bounced off the earth’s surface. Normally this radiation would escape into space, but these pollutants, which can last for years to centuries in the atmosphere, trap the heat and cause the planet to get hotter. These heat-trapping pollutants—specifically carbon dioxide, methane, nitrous oxide, water vapor, and synthetic fluorinated gases—are known as greenhouse gases, and their impact is called GREENHOUSE EFFECT
