Answer: Option D. -> Water vapour
The primary greenhouse gases in the Earth's atmosphere are water vapour, carbon dioxide, methane, nitrous oxide, and ozone. When these gases are ranked by their direct contribution to the greenhouse effect in percentage terms, the most important are: Water vapour: 36-72 per cent; Carbon dioxide: 9-26 per cent; Methane: 4-9 per cent; and Ozone: 3-7 per cent.

Answer: Option A. -> Suspended solid particles in air
An aerosol (abbreviation of "aero-solution") is a suspension of fine solid particles or liquid droplets in air or another gas.

Answer: Option D. -> Radioactive waste
The Chernobyl accident in 1986 was the result of a flawed reactor design that was operated with inadequately trained personnel. The resulting steam explosion and fires released at least 5% of the radioactive reactor core into the environment, with the deposition of radioactive materials in many parts of Europe.

Answer: Option A. -> Nitrous oxide
Nitrous oxide is produced by combustion of fossil fuels, livestock wastes, breakdown of nitrogenous fertilizers in soil, nitrate contaminated water, nylon production and other industrial processes.

Answer: Option D. -> Glucose
Answer: Option D. -> N-heptane
Octane rating or octane number is a standard measure of the performance of a motor or aviation fuel. The higher the octane number, the more compression the fuel can withstand. Isooctane (upper) has an octane rating of 100 whereas n-heptane has an octane rating of 0.

Answer: Option C. -> Nickel
Nickel-based super alloys are an unusual class of metallic materials with an exceptional combination of high temperature strength, toughness, and resistance to degradation in corrosive or oxidizing environment. These materials are widely used in aircraft and power-generation turbines, rocket engines, etc.
