The primary gases volcanoes belch forth more than any other (besides steam-water vapor) continues to be sulfur dioxide, hydrogen sulfide, and carbon dioxide. To a lesser extent nitrogen, argon, helium, methane, carbon monoxide, and other more exotic molecules are also vented.

How many volcanoes are there on Jupiter's moon Io?
There is no exact amount of volcanoes that are on Saturn. However, these are ice volcanoes and they are scientifically named cryovolcanoes.
What is the approximate amount of nitrogen in the atmosphere?
composition of dry atmosphere by volume..... 78.09% nitrogen
Is the amount of water in earth's atmosphere and on earth always the same?
Yes - the Earth has a finite amount of water on it. This water cycles between the oceans and the atmosphere.
What occupies the greatest amount of space which state of matter?
the gases, due to their low density in comparison to solids or fluids occupy the greatest amount of space
The amount of light and warmth a planet receives depends on what?
distance and atmosphere
What planet with the greatest amount of carbon dioxide in its atmosphere?
earth
Is it true the greatest amount of gas in the air is oxygen?
No. If we look at the composition of gases in the atmosphere, the greatest amount of gas is nitrogen- 78%. Oxygen is 21% in the atmosphere. remaining 1% is carbon dioxide, carbon monoxide etc.
Where can a large amount of nitrogen be found on the planet?
The greatest concentration of nitrogen on the Earth is found in its atmosphere. The atmosphere is approximately 78 percent nitrogen.
What greatest factors in the atmosphere seem to have the greatest effect on the amount of radiation received from the sun?
The ozone layer has the greatest effect on the amount of ultraviolet radiation received at the earth's surface from the Sun. Cloud formation and atmospheric thickness, in combination with solar angle, have the greatest effect on the amount of visible and infrared radiation received at the earth's surface from the sun
What is the largest amount of gas in the atmosphere?
The atmosphere is primarily composed of Nitrogen (N2), which accounts for 78%. Oxygen follows, accounting for 20% of its volume, with argon less than 1%. The remainder is composed of particulates and trace gases, including water vapor.

How many volcanoes can erupt at once?
An unlimited amount of volcanoes can erupt at once
What do you think will happen to the amount of volcanoes and what impact will it have on farming?
The amount of volcanoes will tend to increase, which will impact farming in a negative way by decreasing the amount of available farmland.
What variables with in volcanoes cause different types of eruptions?
The amount of gas and the pressure in the volcanoes.
