Although there is an enormous amount of hydrogen contained in Earth's crust and in the waters of the oceans, the free hydrogen in the air is only about 55 parts per million by volume. Because it readily combines with a number of other elements, concentrations are quickly dissipated. Any free hydrogen will rise rapidly into the atmosphere, to be ionized into space : the lighter elements such as hydrogen and helium readily escape the pull of gravity. (Nitrogen and oxygen are heavy enough to be held more readily.)
What else can I help you with?
When earths early atmosphere formed which gases where lost because earths gravity was too weak?
Hydrogen and helium
Which makes up less than 1 percent of earths atmosphere?
Argon and trace gases like neon, helium, and methane make up less than 1 percent of Earth's atmosphere.
What gas is nearly 21 percent of earths atmosphere?
oxygen . hey people googling there science hw. join the club :)
Does the planet Saturn have an atmosphere?
Yes, Saturn has a thick atmosphere primarily composed of hydrogen and helium. It also contains traces of compounds like methane and ammonia. The atmosphere of Saturn is known for its turbulent weather patterns, including powerful storms and winds.
Makes up 21 percent of the atmosphere?
Oxygen makes up 21% of the Earths atmosphere.

Is hydrogen part of earths atmosphere?
Yes. Hydrogen is part - albeit a very small part - of the Earth's atmosphere. Typically it makes up about 0.000055% of the atmosphere
What makes up 1 percent of Earth's atmosphere?
