The major contribution in heating the troposphere comes from the sun's radiation. The sun warms the ground by radiation, which in turn warms the air heating the troposphere.
Most of it is converted into heat energy, that is ... it ceases to exist.
If there is any type of energy given offduring a chemical reaction, it is most likely to be heat or light. However, heat and light often come together, and there are more reactions known to give heat without light than the other way around. Thus, I would go for heat then. (simply put)
Depending on the source of the heat energy: -A darker piece of paper would absorb more energy from light sources, then a white piece of paper. This is due to the fact that the white piece of paper would reflect most of the light energy, whereas the dark paper would absorb that energy. This light energy can then be converted into heat energy, leading the dark paper to have more heat energy then the white paper -Heat from a source such as hot water being poured on the paper, would not lead to any color related heat difference
electromagnetic energy is the other name for light energy. Radiant energy is also widely used, though electromagnetic is the most scientific term.
When wood burns, chemical energy is transformed into heat
It's the Sun. I'm studying this right now, it says:'Nearly all energy comes from the sun. Some of the solar radiation received by the Earth is reflected back to space by the atmosphere, clouds, and the Earth's surface. The rest is absorbed by the atmosphere and Earth and is changed into heat energy.'
The layer in which the Earth receives the most energy is the photosphere
The troposphere and thermosphere are the layers of the atmosphere where most of the energy transfer occurs. In the troposphere, heat is transferred through processes like convection and radiation, while in the thermosphere, energy is primarily transferred through absorption of solar radiation.
The sun is the most useful cause for the heating of the troposphere
The Equator receives the most heat energy
no
The area around the Equator receives the most direct sunlight, thus absorbs the most heat.
The area around the Equator receives the most direct sunlight, thus absorbs the most heat.

Mars is the closest planet to the sun, and receives the most energy.
Most of the heat in the troposphere is not directly from the sun; rather, it primarily comes from the Earth's surface. The sun heats the land and oceans, which then radiate heat back into the atmosphere, warming the troposphere. Additionally, greenhouse gases trap some of this heat, further contributing to the warming of the lower atmosphere. Thus, while solar radiation is crucial, the heat in the troposphere is a result of both direct sunlight and the Earth's surface processes.
