The Greenhouse Effect

Earth gases in the atmosphere

The sun emits ultraviolet (UV) radiation which hits the earth

These rays of light hit the earth and reflect back towards space in the form of UV as well as Infrared (IR) radiation

gases in the atmosphere pick up some of the heat from the IR rays and disperse them back into the earths atmosphere keeping the earth warm enough to sustain life

Would you be able to feel the heat?

When certain gases in the atmosphere absorb IR Radiation their vibrational modes are excited and vibrate, causing them to collide with other molecules and transfer energy On a molecular level…

When the electrons return to their ground state, they re-emit the energy with a frequency equal to the frequency of energy gap between the two levels

Only certain gases do this, just like dogs can hear frequencies that humans cannot because their eardrum vibrates with different wavelengths than ours

If this didnt happen… The climate would be an average of 60°F colder and the earth could not sustain life as we know it.

So greenhouse gases are called greenhouse gases because they keep some heat in the atmosphere to sustain life on earth as a greenhouse does to sustain life in the greenhouse when it is cold outside

So a round of applause for greenhouse gases !

Lets find out which atmospheric gases are green house gases

Greenhouse gas molecules are able to vibrate with the absorption of heat Hint…

So why do greenhouse gases have such a bad reputation?

Natural Versus Enhanced Climate chemists believe that humans are producing more of the naturally occurring greenhouse gases than the atmosphere can naturally handle from…

Anthropogenic

The most abundant atmospheric gas, Nitrogen molecules have a strong bond which makes it chemically stable and non-reactive in most circumstances. Nitrogen's simple structure is unable to absorb either visible or infrared light. As a result, nitrogen is not a greenhouse gas.

Oxygen is the second most abundant atmospheric gas. Why do you think that Oxygen is also not a greenhouse gas?

there are others

Some greenhouse gases are not naturally occurring – they are manmade Sulfur Hexafluoride Carbon tetrafluoride Hexafluoroethane

And Hydrofluorocarbons Which once saved the earth!

CFCs or Chlorofluorocarbons

UV light in the atmosphere would break thte bonds of the Chlorine in the CFCs and release it. Chlorine was found to deplete the ozone.

HFC – Hydrofluorocarbons was the answer

Right now HFCs do not contribute to climate change as much as CO2 but…

Maybe we should just tell those people in China, India and Africa that they cant have what we have?

Chemists to the rescue!

Why should I care??????
