What are the two main reason why Jovian planets have much thicker atmoshperes than the Terrestrial planets?
While terrestrial planets are made of rock and have gases in the atmosphere, jovian planets are made almost entirly of gases. If an atmosphere is made of gases in a planet, then the atmosphere of the planets with more gases will be thicker.
What is the scientific term for gases the are surrounding a planet?
The scientific name for the gasses that surround a planet is atmosphere. The atmosphere of earth is made of nitrogen, oxygen, and carbon dioxide.
What is a very hot planet?
mercury Venus is the hottest planet in the Solar System due to the fact that it has a very thick atmosphere containing hot and poisonous gas, which traps heat in. It is also the second planet from the sun. Mercury has no atmosphere, so it isn't as hot.
How is the size of a planet related to the thickness of its atmosphere?
Mainly, the mass of a planet doesn't matter, considering many planets are made up of gas, and how in different situations, atmospheres can be destroyed (The Sun burnt off Mercury's Atmosphere). However, in some cases, the planet can be in a good situation on the galaxic map, and have great conditions for an atmosphere, such as Earth. In which case, the mass of an object can attract a smaller object, causing gravity. Therefore, the bigger the mass of a planet when in right and specific conditions, the more atmosphere it can attract, if there is any floating by the planet. If it is bigger it will have more gravitational influence and therefore gather more gases.
What is the Name for planets whose atmosphere is made up of mostly gases?
atmosphere is made up of gases in all planets. But if you mean planets that are mostly atmosphere, then those are gas giants (Jupiter, Saturn, Neptune, Uranus)
Is venus made up of poisonous gas?
No. The atmosphere is made of poisonous gasses, but the planet itself is rock.
Which inner planet has a poisonous atmosphere made of carbon dioxide and sulfuric acid?
Venus
Which planet's atmosphere is made up of thick deadly gases?
That would be Venus.

Why is it most likely that mars would be the first planet that humans would settle on?
Because it is the nearest planet to Earth that does not have conditions readily deadly to humans (poisonous gases in the atmosphere, extreme heat, etc.), and theoretically could be made more Earthlike.
Is the atmosphere often referred to as air?
An atmosphere is a sort of shell of gases surrounding a planet or a moon. In Earth's case, we call these gases air. So you could say that the atmosphere is made of air.
Is the planet venus a solid or made of gases?
It is definitely a solid, but it has very dense atmosphere too.
What are atmosphere gases?
atmosphere gases are made of air
What gas is Venus made of?
The gases on Venus are mostly carbon dioxide (about 96%) and nitrogen (about 3.5%) with some sulfur dioxide and argon. So the atmosphere is poisonous. Nobody would be able to breathe on this planet because of all the fricken gases! Hope that helps you guys!
What the major gases on our planet?
Nitrogen_____________________________________________________________________Our atmosphere is about 78% nitrogen and 21% oxygen. The remaining 1% is made up of a number of trace gases.
What planet's atmosphere is made up of nitrogen with some oxygen?
Earth's atmosphere is made up of 78% nitrogen and 21% oxygen. The other 1% is other gases.
