What is mositure that falls from the sky?
Rain: The condensed water vapor that first evaporated from the earths surface (see water cycle)
Almost all of the water vapor in earths atmosphere is contained in the?
Troposphere. This is the lowest section of the earths atmosphere that contains 75% of the earths atmosphere by mass and 99% of the earths water vapour. This section of the atmosphere starts at the surface and extends 7-20km up, the thickness depending largely on where you are in the world.
Which gases in earths atmosphere help keep surface temperatures warm enough for life?
carbon dioxide, methane, and water vapor.
What do you think happens when earths atmosphere becomes saturated with water vapor?
The water vapor condenses.
What percentage of water vapor is in the earths atmosphere?
The % of water vapor is called Humidity. The attached link will give you more information.
Which of these are fissures through which water and water vapor escape from the Earths surface?
Fumaroles are fissures through which water and water vapor escape from the Earth's surface.
Which of these are fissures through which water and water vapor escape from the Earth's surface?
Fumaroles are fissures through which water and water vapor escape from the Earth's surface.
Water from oceans and earths surface that changes to water vapor?
Evaporation
What is the answer for the process by water on earths surface changes from liquid to water vapor?
transpiration,i think
Why are carbon dioxide water vapor and other greenhouse gases important to life on Earths surface?
They absorb radiant energy emitted by Earths surface
Condensed water vapor in the air just above the earths surface?
Fog, mist.
What is mositure that falls from the sky?
Rain: The condensed water vapor that first evaporated from the earths surface (see water cycle)
What best explains what happens when liquid water evaporates to form water vapor?
When water molecules at the surface gain sufficient energy they can escape in the atmosphere.The energy of water molecules increase by a temperature increase and some molecules at the surface can escape in the atmosphere.
What would happen if carbon dioxide methane and water vapor were not in the atmosphere?
The Earths surface would be much colder than it is.
What happens to water closest to the moon?
Water on the surface of the moon will rapidly turn to water vapor as there is no atmospheric pressure on the moon. The vapor will then escape the moon's gravity which is much weaker than the gravity on Earth.
Which gases in earths atmosphere help keep surface temperatures warm enough for life?
carbon dioxide, methane, and water vapor.
Why do clouds usually form high in the air instead near the earths surface?
Because there is more water vapor up in the sky.
