Solution

The correct option is C

O2


The correct option is C:

Explanation of the Correct Option :

  1. Since oxygen has only two atoms of the same element, so when they vibrate in the air, there is no change in their electrical charges.
  2. Therefore, they cannot absorb infrared radiation and do not contribute to the heating of the earth.

Final Answer: O2 is not a greenhouse gas.
