What happens to the temperature as you increase in altitude in each layer of the atmosphere?
The temperature in the atmosphere decreases as altitude increases. The reason for this is there is less warmth from the surface of the earth reaching the higher altitudes because there are fewer particles of the atmosphere to transfer the heat. The temperature begins to increase, however, around 100km in altitude because of the heat and radiation from the sun.
Why does an increase in reaction temp generally increase the reaction rate?
the umber of collisions increases
Is air pressure decreases so does air density?
Air density decreases with altitude, warmer temp and moisture
Does the temperature increase with altitude in the mesosphere?
it decreses as you go up. At the stratopause the temp is +4C, and at mesopause it is - 90C.
What region is the ozone layer located in?
its located in the stratosphere its temp averages -60°C. But temp. rises as alitiude increases in the stratosphere. This happens because the ozone in the stratosphere absorbs ultraviolet radiation from the sun, which warms the air.I got my info fromHolt Science & TechnologyWeather and ClimateHolt, Rinehart and WinstonA Hardcourt Education CompanyOrlando- Austin- New York- San Diego-Toronto- London
Troposphere increase or decrease in air temp?
The temperature of the Troposphere generally decreases as altitude increases.

How does the temperature change as you go up through the troposhpere?
as altitude increases in the troposphere the temp. decreases. on average for every 1 kilometer increase in altitude the air gets about 6.5 Celsius degrees cool.
As altitude increases from the tropopause to the mesopause the atmospheric temperature will?
the temp stays the same
How does the temperature of the air change as you increase in altitude in the troposphere?
The temp rises
Why does an increase in reaction temp generally increase the reaction rate?
the umber of collisions increases
Is air pressure decreases so does air density?
Air density decreases with altitude, warmer temp and moisture
Does the temperature increase with altitude in the mesosphere?
it decreses as you go up. At the stratopause the temp is +4C, and at mesopause it is - 90C.
If temp increases by 2 degrees celsius what is the increase in Fahrenheit?
It is 3.6 Fahrenheit degrees.
As you go up in altitude going higher in the atmosphere does the temperature of the air in the troposphere increase or decrease?
Air pressure decreases as you move away from the earth into the atmosphere. Think of it as the air above you pushes down on you. The farther up you go, the less air is above you to push down. Air temp also decreases as you go up.
The temp in the atmosphere approaches -90 Celsius at an altitude of about what?
The temp in the atmosphere approaches -90C at an altitude of 80 kilometers.
What are rates of reaction influenced by?
Temperature (rate increases with temp increase) Pressure (rate again increases with press increase) Concentration (rate increases with concentration increase) Particle size (rate increases with smaller particles) Catalyst increases rate.
