Which of the following oxides of nitrogen is not a greenhouse gas?
Nitrogen monoxide
Nitrogen dioxide
Nitrous oxide
Nitric oxide
Correct Option D
The correct answer is (D) Nitric oxide. Nitrogen monoxide, nitrogen dioxide, and nitrous oxide are all greenhouse gases, meaning they contribute to the greenhouse effect and global warming. However, Nitric oxide is not considered a greenhouse gas as it is not stable enough in the atmosphere to contribute to the greenhouse effect. Hence option D is the correct answer.
Option (A) is incorrect because nitrogen monoxide, nitrogen dioxide , and nitrous oxide are all greenhouse gases, meaning they contribute to the greenhouse effect and global warming. Hence option A is incorrect.
Option (B) is incorrect because nitrogen monoxide, nitrogen dioxide, and nitrous oxide are all greenhouse gases, meaning they contribute to the greenhouse effect and global warming. Hence option B is incorrect.
Option (C) is incorrect because nitrogen monoxide, nitrogen dioxide and nitrous oxide are all greenhouse gases, meaning they contribute to the greenhouse effect and global warming. Hence option C is incorrect.
