Some gases are responsible for heating of atmosphere (green house effect). Identify from the following the gaseous species which does not cause it.
- \(CH_4\)
- \(O_3\)
- \(H_2O\)
- \(N_2\)
The Correct Option is D
Solution and Explanation
Among the given gases, the green house gases which are responsible for heating the atmosphere are \(CH_4\), water vapour and ozone.
Nitrogen is not a green house gas.
Therefore, the correct option is (D): \(N_2\)

A substance 'X' (1.5 g) dissolved in 150 g of a solvent 'Y' (molar mass = 300 g mol$^{-1}$) led to an elevation of the boiling point by 0.5 K. The relative lowering in the vapour pressure of the solvent 'Y' is $____________ \(\times 10^{-2}\). (nearest integer)
[Given : $K_{b}$ of the solvent = 5.0 K kg mol$^{-1}$]
Assume the solution to be dilute and no association or dissociation of X takes place in solution.- JEE Main - 2026
