Question to the scientists.
I'm trying to find out for my self how effective co2 is as a "green house gas" my question is why do we have better insulated d.g windows using more expensive argon instead of co2, if co2 is such a good greenhouse gas?
The density of argon is 1.784kg/m3 where as co2 is heavier at 1.98kg/m3 so convection currents between glass pains should be less with co2.
So is argon better at reflecting long wave radiation? If this is hypothetically the case then it would have a greater "green house effect" than co2 as it consitutes 0.934% of the atmosphere not 383ppm!
