Question

greenhouse gas
major greenhouses gases
have what is known as a greenhouse warming potential. a
ng potential measures the ability of a molecule to contribute to
er a period of time. one greenhouse gas is water vapor. water
ouse warming potential of less than one and lasts up to nine days
nitrous oxide is another greenhouse gas with a greenhouse
of 300, and it can last 114 years in the atmosphere.
the standard gas used for comparison of greenhouse warming
greenhouse warming potential of one and can last 300 - 1,000 years
. for example, cfcs, or chlorofluorocarbons, possess the greatest
ing potential of 1,600 - 13,000 times that of carbon dioxide.
ce in the atmosphere is carbon dioxide, water vapor, and nitrogen,
use gases stray outside that natural balance like cfcs and
e has a greenhouse warming potential of 25 and can last in the
years.
which gas has a greenhouse warming potential of 16
13,000 times greater than carbon dioxide?
nitrous oxide
methane
cfcs

Explanation:

Brief Explanations

From the left text, it says "CFCs, or chlorofluorocarbons, possess the greatest warming potential of 1,600 - 13,000 times that of carbon dioxide", which matches the question's description of a gas with a greenhouse warming potential of 1600 - 13,000 times greater than carbon dioxide. Nitrous oxide has a potential of 300, and methane has 25, so they don't match.

Answer:

CFCs
