All water in the cycle must pass through the atmosphere as water vapor,even though the atmosphere only holds enough to make a global layer about 2mm deep.


The water vapor content in the air ranges from almost nil when temperatures are well into the double digits below zero (C or F) and dew points are even lower. In contrast, saturated air at 104F results in 7% of the air. I doubt its ever really been THAT high tho.

What is the total volume of water in the atmosphere?

it is 2 percent of the total volume of atmosphere, therefore 2/100*51,006,560,000,000 cubic metres (m^3) =1.0201312 x10 ^12m^3


What percent does water vapor make up in the atmosphere?

Water vapor typically makes up about 1% to 4% of the Earth's atmosphere by volume. Its concentration can vary depending on factors such as temperature and location.


Water vapor occupies about what percentage of the air's volume near the earth's surface?

At 86 degrees Fahrenheit, or 30 degrees Celsius, the percentage of the atmosphere comprised of water is about 4. 24 percent. Less than 1 percent of that water is NOT on the layer of the atmosphere closest to the earth.


What accounts for 95 percent of volume of urine?

Water.


What gas in the atmosphere makes up four percent of the atmosphere?

Carbon dioxide (CO2) makes up about 0.04 percent of the Earth's atmosphere, not four percent. The gas that constitutes around four percent of the atmosphere is water vapor, although its concentration can vary significantly based on temperature and humidity. Water vapor plays a crucial role in weather and climate processes.


What layer of the atmosphere contains 90 percent water vapor?

The troposphere is the layer of the atmosphere that contains about 90 percent of the water vapor. This is the lowest layer of the atmosphere where weather phenomena occur and where most of Earth's clouds and precipitation are formed.


What gas has percent by volume 0.0 to 4.0?

water vapor


What is the percent by volume of a solution formed by added 15 ml of acetone to28 ml of water?

To find the percent by volume of acetone in the solution, first calculate the total volume of the solution, which is 15 ml (acetone) + 28 ml (water) = 43 ml. The percent by volume of acetone is then calculated as (volume of acetone / total volume) × 100, which is (15 ml / 43 ml) × 100 ≈ 34.88%. Thus, the percent by volume of acetone in the solution is approximately 34.88%.


What percent does water vapour of the atmosphere?

It varies. There is no single percentage value


What is the maximum Water Vapour content in the atmosphere?

The maximum water vapor content that the atmosphere can hold varies with temperature, but under normal conditions, it does not exceed around 4% by volume. This maximum is known as the saturation vapor pressure and is higher in warmer air than in cooler air.


When water freezes its volume increases by how many percent?

9-10 %


Which gases form 99 percent of Earth's atmosphere?

No one gas comprises 99% of the atmosphere, but nitrogen (~78.09%) and oxygen (~20.95%) together comprise about 99% of the atmosphere (on a dry basis, i.e. not including water vapor which can range from near 0% to 5%).
