Answer:

The correct option is: CO₂

Explanation:

Greenhouse effect refers to the natural phenomenon by which the Sun's radiation increases the temperature of the Earth's surface.

The incoming Sun's radiation is radiated by the greenhouse gases present in the Earth's atmosphere. A fraction of the radiated energy is then absorbed by the Earth's surface, thus resulting in increase in the temperature.

<u>Thus the green house effect depends upon the amount of green house gases present in the atmosphere.</u>

The green house gases are the r<u>adiatively active gases.</u> The main four green house gases are: water vapor (H₂O(g)), carbon dioxide (CO₂), methane (CH₄) and ozone (O₃).

<u>Human activities such as burning of fossil gases and deforestation increases the concentration of </u><u>CO₂ </u><u>significantly.</u><u> Thereby contributing to the greenhouse effect.</u>

Si 100 monedas tienen una masa total de 226.13g. Cual es la masa de una moneda
galben [10]

The mass of a coin : 2.2613 g

<h3>Further explanation  </h3>

Algebraic expressions in mathematics are a combination of coefficients, numbers, variables, constants and arithmetic operations such as addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division.  

The main composition of algebraic expressions are:  

  • 1. phrases  

algebraic forms separated by arithmetic operations  

consists of one phrase (monomial) to many phrases (polynomial)  

  • 2. variables  

is a value that can be changed, can be in the form of letters, for example, x, y, a, b, etc.  

  • 3. constants  

is a fixed value, can be a number  

  • 4. arithmetic operations ⇒ +, - , : , x

<em>If 100 coins have a total mass of 226.13g. What is the mass of a coin</em>

We can make this statement in the form of an algebraic equation :

100 coins=226.13 g

then the mass of a coin :

\tt \dfrac{1}{100}\times 226.13~g=2.2613~g
