Which one of the following statements is not true? Group of answer choices -A greenhouse gas is a molecule that absorbs and emits infrared radiation. -IR photons will be absorbed when a vibration occurs that creates a changing dipole in a molecule. -Shape and bond polarity can be used to predict if a gas will be a greenhouse gas. -Symmetric nonpolar molecules cannot be greenhouse gases.

Which one of the following statements is false? Group of answer choices -Water is the most important greenhouse gas. -Water plays the greatest role in the thermal regulation of the atmosphere -The amount of energy absorbed when water evaporates is large due to its strong intermolecular forces. -Water molecules absorb energy when water vapor condenses to form clouds.
Below are three statements - two of which are truths and one is a lie. Which of the following statements is a lie? Select one: a. Water molecules has both hydrogen bond and polar covalent bond. b.
