What are mercury Venus earth and mars atmospheres made of?
Mercury has a surface pressure that is near enough zero (or a vacuum), the planet holds no real atmosphere due to its small size. There are some trace gases at the surface, but not what one would call a proper atmosphere.
Which two terrestrial planets do not have atmospheres?
Mercury is the only planet (and inner planet) without an atmosphere - due to its small size. Mars has an atmosphere, but it is a thin one, mainly of carbon dioxide.
Why is Venus hotter than Mercury even though it is further from the sun?
it is hottter because venus has the greenhouse affect
Which rocky planet has only thin atmosphere?
Mars, It has a thin atmosphere of carbon dioxide. Earth and Venus have relatively thick atmospheres due to their larger size, while Mercury's mass is not large enough to sustain any stable atmosphere.
What planet has a thick carbon dioxide atmosphere?
Venus has the thickest carbon dioxide atmosphere.
What atmospheric element has increased in the atmosphere since the beginning of the Industrial Revolution?
Carbon Dioxide
What gas has increased in concentration in the atmosphere since the beginning of industrial revolution?
Carbon dioxide
What gas has increase in concentration in the atmosphere since the beginning of the industrial revolution?
Carbon dioxide
Which planet has a thin atmosphere besides Mercury?
Mars has the next thinnest atmosphere, a thin carbon dioxide atmosphere. Although thin, it's much more substantial than anything mercury has got in the way of surface pressure.
What makes Mercury the hottest planet?
Although Mercury is the closest planet to the sun, it is only the second hottest planet after Venus. Venus gets hotter as the thick carbon Dioxide atmosphere holds the heat more effectively, while Mercury has no atmosphere.
Composition of atmosphere for Mercury?
Mercury has no atmosphere to speak of. There are traces of sodium, oxygen, argon, helium, nitrogen, carbon dioxide, water and hydrogen floating around' but it's pretty much hard vacuum down to the surface.
There is 30 percent more in Earth's atmosphere today than there was before the start of the Industrial Revolution?
carbon dioxide
Why is Venus hotter than Mercury even though its closer to the sun?
Because Venus Has A Thick Atmosphere Made Of Carbon Dioxide And Mecury Has A Very Thin Atmosphere
What are the conditons on Venus?
Venus is the hottest planet in the solar system, hotter even than the planet Mercury. Its atmosphere is more than 90 times more dense than Earth and made mostly of Carbon Dioxide which acts as a green house making the planet surface as hot as 860 degrees Fahrenheit (460 Celsius). It also has a slow rotation, so slow that its revolution around the sun takes less time than it takes to go through one rotation.

How has the concentration of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere changed since the start of the Industrial Revolution?
The Short [Shout] Answer can only be: "Through the Roof!"
Which planet in your Solar System is the hottest one?
You would have thought it to be Mercury as its the closest to the sun, but its actually Venus, the second closest. Venus gets hotter as the thick carbon Dioxide atmosphere holds the heat more effectively, while Mercury has no atmosphere.
