What are the names of the four layers of earths atmosphere?
1. Troposphere. 2. Stratosphere. 3. Mesosphere. 4. Thermosphere.
What and where are the ionosphere and exosphere?
The layer of the atmosphere that contains the ionosphere and exosphere is called the thermosphere. The exosphere is at the top and the ionosphere is at the bottom.
What percent of Earth's atmosphere does titanium make up?
Only if it was intentionally or accidentally taken into the atmosphere as part of a space exploration. Usually it's a earth-bound or animal-derived mineral that's too heavy to exist as a "free", airborne element.
What sphere extends from earths core to earths crust?
idek what 2 say???
Summarize the carbon cycle starting and ending with carbon dioxide in the atmosphere.?
The carbon cycle is a process where carbon is removed and returned to the atmosphere. The ways of returning carbon to the atmosphere are- 1. Respiration 2. Decomposition 3. Combustion Ways of removing carbon- Photosynthesis. The CO2 in the air is taken in by green plants for photosynthesis. The green plants die eventually and is decomposed; decomposition return carbon to the atmosphere. Animals respire and return carbon dioxide to the atmosphere. Decomposers respire as well. Green plants can be used to make fuels, which combust to return carbon dioxide to the air.
What are three ways in which the atmosphere is important to earth?
first of all it helps by : 1. the atmosphere gives earths animals or creations air to breath 2. the atmosphere helps plants grow 3.
What 2 elements are the most common in earths atmosphere?
Nitrogen (78 %) and oxygen (21 %).
What are the names of the 2 most common gases in the earths atmosphere?
Nitrogen and Oxygen make up nearly 99% of the dry atmosphere.
What are the symbols of the 2 most abundant elements found in earths atmosphere?
Oxygen is O and nitrogen is N.
What are the names of the four layers of earths atmosphere?
1. Troposphere. 2. Stratosphere. 3. Mesosphere. 4. Thermosphere.
What and where are the ionosphere and exosphere?
The layer of the atmosphere that contains the ionosphere and exosphere is called the thermosphere. The exosphere is at the top and the ionosphere is at the bottom.
What are two ways that rocks on the earths surface are changed?
1) physical erosion. 2) chemical weathering.
What are the earths atmosphere facts?
1. there are five layers of the atmosphere 2. it is composed of the gas nitrogen (N) and oxygen (O) mainly 3. nitrogen (N) occupies 78% of the atmosphere 4. oxugen (O) occupies 21% of the atmosohere
What is H20SO4?
H20SO4 is hydrogen+ oxygen+ ascorbic acid. soon in the future they want to use this mixture to reflect 2% of the suns rays and thus it will cool the earths atmosphere down by 2 degrees Celsius. they will do this by spraying it up into the highest part of the atmosphere above the clouds to block that 2% of the sun rays. but, by doing this it will cost over 10 BILLION dollars a year to be able to control the earths temperature.
Can the moon crash into earth if the earth's atmosphere disappears?
Well, lets look at it from two viewpoints: 1) The earth's atmosphere is not going to "disappear", hence that question is moot. 2) If the earths atmosphere somehow did disappear, it would have no effect on the moon's position in space as regards the earth.
What are some ways people can effect earths energy budget?
This is straight from the book: 1.Solar radiation hits Earth and it's atmosphere 2.Earth loses energy by reflection of sunlight from its surface and from clouds, dust, and air molecules in the atmosphere 3.Earth's surface, clouds, and atmosphere lose infrared radiation(heat) to space 4.Greenhouse gasses, such as carbon dioxide, let sunlight in but keep infrared radiation from escaping to space
What are primary gases found in earths atmosphere?
Nitrogen and oxygen together make up about 99% of the atmosphere by volume. Most of the remaining 1% is argon. Under humid conditions water vapor may make up 2-4% of the air.
