What are the two most common elements that compose earths continental crust?
Granite and basalt...... + a bunch of bugs n' stuff
What is the mass of the earth is made by which two elements?
In the Earth crust the most abundant are oxygen and silicon.
What atmospheric layer is closest to Earth's crust?
The atmospheric layer closest to Earth's crust is the troposphere. It extends from the surface of the Earth up to about 8 to 15 kilometers (5 to 9 miles) in altitude, depending on latitude and weather conditions. This layer is where most of the Earth's weather occurs and contains approximately 75% of the atmosphere's mass.
Where do volcanoes most commonly happen?
cracks in the plates which make up the crust. the earths crust is not connected. its made up of plates that moves and they are formed by plates pushing together then collapsing. they erupt when it gets a lot of friction from the plates pushing together
How do earthquakes can be used to infer plate boundaries?
alright so when tectonic plates meet there are earthquakes because when the plates collide with each other because the earth is always moving it creates giant earthquakes that push and pull the tectonic plates on the crust of earth causing earth quakes. Volcanoes form at the boundaries of tectonic plates because it is one of the only places on the earths crust where there are holes in the crust so the liquid mantle (lava) can escape through the earths crust. forming volcanoes.
Which layer contains most of the earths mass?
The Mantle
Which is the second most abundant element in the earths crust?
The second most abundant element in the Earth's crust is silicon, comprising 27.8% of the crust by mass.
What is The most common mineral group in earths crust is the what?
Silicate is the mineral group in the Earth's crust. This contains quartz, feldspars, and micas.
What is The most common mineral group in earths crust is?
Silicate is the mineral group in the Earth's crust. This contains quartz, feldspars, and micas.
What is the Most common mineral group in earths crust is what?
Silicate is the mineral group in the Earth's crust. This contains quartz, feldspars, and micas.
What makes up the largest percentage of mass on earths crust?
Oxygen is the most abundant element in Earth's crust, making up about 47% of its mass. Silicon is the second most abundant element, comprising approximately 28% of the crust's mass.
Which element makes up a large portion of the earths solid crust?
Oxygen is the most abundant element in the Earth's crust, making up about 46.6% of its mass.
What is most of the earths mass in?
Most of the mass of the Earth is in the mantle, most of the rest in the core; the part we inhabit is a tiny fraction of the whole
What is the most commonly found element in the earths crust?
The Earth's crust contains eight elements. The most common element among the eight is Oxygen (47 percent) and second is Silicon (28 percent).
What layer of earth containa 67 percent of your earth mass?
the answer is athenosphere because it has less percent and since mantle has the most then athenosphere should have the 67% of the earths mass
Which of the earths layers has the most air?
The Crust has the most oxygen in it
Which atmoshpheric layer contains most of themass of earths atmosphere?
The most of the mass of atmosphere is contained in troposphere. It contains most gases.
