Common greenhouse gases include water vapour (H2O), carbon dioxide (CO2), methane (CH4), nitrous oxide (N2O), ozone (O3), and chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs). Nitrogen (N2), despite being the most abundant gas in Earth&#8217;s atmosphere, is a diatomic molecule that does not significantly absorb infrared radiation and is therefore not considered a greenhouse gas.<\/section>\n<section id=\"pyq-key-points\">Nitrogen (N2) is not a greenhouse gas.<\/section>\n<section id=\"pyq-additional-information\">The greenhouse effect is a natural process essential for maintaining the Earth&#8217;s temperature, but human activities have increased the concentration of greenhouse gases, leading to enhanced warming. While N2 is not a greenhouse gas, some nitrogen compounds like N2O are potent greenhouse gases.<\/section>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Which one of the following gases is not responsible for global warming ?
