In the early atmosphere of Earth, water vapor primarily originated from volcanic activity and the cooling of the planet. As the Earth cooled, the water vapor condensed into liquid water, leading to the formation of oceans. Additionally, some water vapor was lost to space due to the planet's gravity and solar wind. Over time, the accumulation of water in the oceans played a crucial role in shaping the planet's climate and supporting the development of life.
What else can I help you with?
Is water vapour not one of the constituents in air?
Water vapour is a constituents in air because water vapour rises in the atmosphere & is always present in the atmospere in some or the other quantity.Also 0.0001% of air consist water vapour
Does sunlight and heat help water enter the atmosphere to form clouds?
As the sun evaporates the water and the water turns into water vapour and rises up. When it reaches a certain height in the atmosphere, the water vapour condenses to form tiny droplets of water and thus forms clouds
What would happen if the air in the upper atmosphere were warmer than the water vapor in the air?
It is impossible for the water vapour in the air to be at a different temperature from the air of which it is a part. However warm air can hold more water vapour than cool air. Thus when air is warming up there are unlikely to be any clouds (clouds are caused by water vapour condensing out of air).
What is clouds not made of?
clouds are made of water and water vapour (almost the same thing) ,so anythign that isnt water or water vapour is not made in clouds
What two things does the atmosphere contains?
oxygen, hydrogen, water vapour, carbon dioxide, other gases, particles
What happened to the water vapour that was in the early atmosphere?
The water vapor in the early atmosphere of Earth likely condensed and fell as rain, contributing to the formation of the oceans. This process, known as the "water cycle," involves the continuous movement of water between the atmosphere, land, and oceans through processes like evaporation, condensation, and precipitation. Over time, the oceans became the primary reservoir for water on Earth, where it remains today.
Can water vapour be turned back to liquid?
Yes, in the atmosphere water vapour falls as rain.
When it reaches the atmosphere what happens to rainwater?
it becomes water vapour in the atmosphere.
What happened to the water vapor in the atmosphere when the early Earth cooled?
As the early Earth cooled, the water vapor in the atmosphere condensed and fell as rain, leading to the formation of the Earth's oceans. This process is known as the "primordial rainout" and it played a crucial role in shaping the planet's surface and creating the conditions for life to emerge.
Water vapour in the atmosphere is confined only to?
ionosphere
What does humidity?
Humidity is the amount of water vapour in the atmosphere
What is the process by which water in plants is tranferred as water vapour to the atmosphere?
transpiration
What was the compsition of early atmosphere when the Earth first formed?
Water vapour (produced rain-rivers, lakes, oceans) carbon dioxide nitrogen
What is the most variable in the atmosphere?
The most variable abundance in the atmosphere is Water Vapour and Ozone
What is the definition Humidity?
amount of water vapour in the atmosphere, or in a gas
Does vapour pressure include the partial pressure of water vapour in the atmosphere during boiling process?
The partial pressure of water (vapor) is included in the total pressure of the atmosphere (air) when boiling.
When does water from the lakes and oceans enter the atmosphere?
when the water turns into gas form as water vapour
