The atmosphere of Neptune is mainly helium and hydrogen, with trace amounts of ammonia, methane and water. Neptune is a gas giant with a small solid core. Neptunes atmospere contains variable gases, ice, and water. Also the center of Neptunes core is made of ice and water also.

∙ 13y agoThe atmosphere of Neptune is similar to all the large planets in the Solar System; it mostly consists of hydrogen and helium, with trace amounts of methane, water, ammonia and other ices. But unlike the other gas planets in the Solar System, Neptune's atmosphere has a larger proportion of the ices. It's the methane in the planet's upper atmosphere that give it its bright blue color.

∙ 11y agoThe atmosphere is very, very windy. Winds rip across the planet all the time, much faster than any winds on Earth. There are also lots of storms on Neptune, which show up as dark spots. This means Neptune's appearance is constantly changing.

∙ 12y agoi describe Neptune as a gas giant because it is made out of gas but not only 1 gas it is made out of three gasses one is helium. it takes 165 earth days so Neptune can travel around the sun

∙ 11y agoNeptune has an icy atmosphere composed of helium, hydrogen and methane, as well as dust and ice.
The atmosphere is very stormy, with winds fast enough to shred a mere human in seconds.

How does the composition of earth atmosphere differ from the composition of the atmosphere of the gas giants?
earth has people in it's atmosphere
Which two planets are similar in composition?
Neptune and Uranus
How does the composition of earths atmosphere differ from the composition of the atmospheres of the gas giant planets?
The Gas Giants have a deep gas atmosphere and earth have a not so deep atmosphere
What two planets have methane in there atmosphere?
Neptune and Uranus both have high concentrations of methane in their atmospheres.
What planet has blue coloring because of methane in the upper atmosphere?
Both Uranus and Neptune have methane in their atmosphere which absorbs red light, allowing the blue hues to be reflected. Neptune is a lot more of a blue colour than Uranus, but Uranus has more methane in its atmosphere. Its though that other constituents in Neptune enrich its blue colour.
What is Saturns' atmosphere composition?
It is a gassy planet like Jupiter, Uranus, and Neptune
Atmosphere is made of BUT Neptune has belts?
atmosphere is made of _____________ BUT Neptune has belts
Would Neptune float or sink in water?
There is no exact answer to this. If you could somehow get a large enough body of water to test it in, many of the gases in Neptune's atmosphere (e.g. ammonia) would rapidly dissolve in the water. Also Neptune is likely to have a dense stony or metallic core under its thick atmosphere, so different parts of Neptune might do different things. However if Neptune had a homogeneous, insoluble in water, not chemically reactive composition, a sample of it would have a density less than the density of water an so would float, but Neptune does not have such a composition.
How much atmosphere does neptune have?
Neptune is a gas giant that is primarily made of a gaseous atmosphere. Neptune's atmosphere is hydrogen and helium, with some water, ammonia and methane.
