Which amongst the following is not a greenhouse gas?
Answer: C
Carbon monoxide is not a greenhouse gas. A greenhouse gas must absorb infrared radiation, which needs a molecule whose dipole moment changes as it vibrates.
Carbon monoxide absorbs very weakly and lasts only a few months in the atmosphere. Carbon dioxide, methane and water vapour are all effective greenhouse gases.
