Today's atmosphere is full of nitrogen and oxygen These are?
gasses
What is the importance of gases present in atmosphere?
Well the gasses help the atmosphere by protecting it also they are in your natural air today
How does the amount of carbon in the atmosphere today compare today to the amount in 1750?
it has almost doubled!
How much percent oxygen present in your atmosphere?
the percentage of oxygen in the atmosphere today is about 20.95%. Or... if you round it you get the most common answer of 21%.
How does the atmosphere composition today compare with the air 1000 years ago?
1000 years ago the air was much the same as it is today, with a little less CO2 and a little less pollution.
Why is it not possible for hydrogen to be in the atmosphere?
It IS possible for hydrogen to be in the atmosphere since we find it there today. Hydrogen is lighter than any other gas, so it of all the gasses in the atmosphere is most readily able to be lost to space. It also combines readily with oxygen to form water, and forms other compounds. However, a small amount of H2 gas does exist in the earth's atmosphere.
What can you conclude about carbon dioxide emissions into today's atmosphere?
Co2 traps heat. therefore the more Co2 in the air the more heat we will collect and build up untill the tempiture gets so unstable that the atmosphere will tear compleatly appart and space will vacume out all gasses on the surface.
Composition of atmosphere in 1900 ce?
Same as today; 79% nitrogen, 20% oxygen, and 1% "everything else", which includes carbon dioxide, various oxides of nitrogen, argon, xenon, radon and assorted other gasses.
What gasses existed after the big bang?
All gases we know today
How did the primitive atmosphere differ from atmosphere today?
As opposed to today's atmosphere, the Earth's early atmosphere would have been quite impossible for human life to thrive in. Today the atmosphere consists primarily of Nitrogen, Oxygen, and Carbon Dioxide, but early Earth's first atmosphere was probably made of Hydrogen and Helium.
