Can a really small planet have an atmosphere?
That depends on when you consider a planet to be "really small." Mars is much smaller than Earth, but it still retains an atmosphere. Mercury, the smallest planet in the solar system, does not have an atmosphere, but it is also very close to the sun, which would tend to drive away atmospheric gasses.
Why does planet mercury have no atmosphere?
Mercury's weak gravity and close proximity to the hot sun make it easy for gasses to escape.
Which gasses are on the planet Mercury?
Mercury has no atmosphere, however, there is a trace exosphere containing hydrogen, helium, and oxygen, that gets dynamically created and destroyed.

Which planet has an atmospheric pressure that is 91 times that of earth?
That would be Venus.
What are the atmospheric gases on the planet Mercury?
By volume, they are:Oxygen (42%), Sodium (29%),Hydrogen (22%),Helium (6%),rest (traces).
What is a method to liquify the atmospheric gases?
To liquify atmospheric gasses, industry compresses and cools air.
If the atmospheric pressure is 29.4 inches of mercury what is the corresponding pressure of mercury?
If the atmospheric pressure is 29.4 inches of mercury the corresponding inches of mercury is: 880.
What tipe of planet is mercury rock or gas giant?
Mercury's close proximity to the sun has caused it to lose any real atmosphere or gasses it may have had long ago. It's all rock.
