If the Earth were closer to the Sun the intense heat might evaporate the oceans and create an atmosphere similar to the atmosphere of which planet?

The answer that you are looking for is "Venus". That planet has a dense atmosphere of CO2, which has produced a runaway greenhouse effect.
When the Earth ocean evaporate, as in this scenario, all of the dissolved CO2 will be liberated and end up in the atmosphere as well, giving us a Venus like greenhouse.

Why do Pluto sometimes become nearer to the sun?
Pluto and its atmosphere never gets close to the sun. If it has an atmosphere, it is totally frozen. If it has an atmosphere and it gets closer to the sun, Pluto probably does not have enough gravy to hold on to its atmosphere as the planet warms up. If something happened and sent Pluto toward the sun so that it heated up it would start losing its atmosphere. First the Nitrogen would melt. Then it would turn into a gas. Then the gas would leak off into space. Methane would melt and then evaporate. Carbon Dioxide would likewise melt then evaporate away. A few other gasses would join them. Then the rocks would be left.
How does latitude help you predict temperatures?
The closer tho the equator, the hotter it is likely to me, because theheat from the sun is more intense
When you get closer to equator what is the temperature?
As sunlight per unit area gets more intense towards the equator, the temperature goes up.
From the graph can you generalize that the higher the layer of the athmosphere (that is closer to the sun) hotter temperature why or why not?
Based on the graph, can you generalize that the higher the layer of the atmosphere (that is closer to the sun), the hotter the temperature? Why or why not
Why does it get colder when you higher because you actually getting closer to the sun?
Because the vacum of space is extremly cold and has no atmosphere. Earth can feel the heat because it has an atmosphere and absorbs it.

Is the sun more intense in Ireland or Australia?
The sun is more intense in the country of Australia. This is because Australia is closer to the equator than Ireland.
What is closer in meaning to intense interesting or frightening?
It is very thick or strong. I did that exam before.
As you get higher in the atmosphere does the particles get closer together or farther apart?
the particles get closer together because my class just talked about that stuff!!

How much more intense is a close whisper than the threshold of hearing?
According to study closer whisper is about 100 times more intense than the threshold of hearing.
Which layer of the atmosphere is closer to earth's surface?
The Troposhere is the closest layer in the atmosphere to Earth's surface at a range of 0-10 km from the surface.

This planets atmosphere is made up of 96 percent carbon dioxide?
venus (closer to 97%)
Does the atmosphere extends above tall mountains?
the atmosphere extends far beyond the tallest mountain but the closer to space you get, the thinner it gets...this is why planes need to be pressurized
How oxygen is your atmosphere?
The atmosphere today is about 21% oxygen. In former times it was different percentages. In dinosaur days, it was closer to 30%, which was a factor in animals growing as big as they did.
What is molecules closer to the surface that are more densely packed than those higher in the atmosphere because of gases pressing down from higher in the atmosphere?
Atmospheric pressure
