Atmospheric pressure is another name for air pressure. This is because the atmosphere is pretty much the same as air.
Equilibrium.
Heat moves from one area to another when there is a difference in temperature between the two areas. Heat naturally flows from areas of higher temperature to areas of lower temperature in an attempt to reach thermal equilibrium.
In short, solar radiation generates heat which affect pressure differentials. Wind is another name for pressure differentials as the pressures attempt to balance one another in equilibrium. Solar radiation comes mostly in the form of heat, both direct and surface radiation. The higher the temperature, the higher the pressure since heat is a measure of the energy the particles are producing. PV = nRT so as pressure temperature increases, pressure increases.
Yes, this energy transfer is known as heat. Heat flows from a higher temperature body to a lower temperature body, until thermal equilibrium is reached.
The temperature would be the boiling point of water at the given pressure, which is 100 degrees Celsius. At this temperature, water and steam coexist in equilibrium.

The equalibrium would shift to reduce the pressure
That is called the TEMPERATURE.
The atmosphere exerts pressure on various objects on the earth's surface. Air pressure is generally caused by the collision of the gas molecules with one another.
To determine the initial pressure of H2S gas in the flask, we need the total pressure and the partial pressure of another gas in equilibrium with H2S. Without the partial pressure of the other gas, we can't determine the initial pressure of H2S with just the Kp value and temperature provided.
Yes, the geosphere is affected by the atmosphere through processes like weathering and erosion, where the atmosphere can break down rocks and move particles from one place to another. Additionally, the atmosphere can also influence the temperature and pressure conditions of the geosphere, impacting various geological processes.
The major factor that changes from one layer of the atmosphere to another is temperature. In the troposphere, temperature generally decreases with altitude, while in the stratosphere, it increases due to the absorption of ultraviolet radiation by the ozone layer. This temperature variation influences weather patterns and the behavior of atmospheric gases. Each layer has distinct characteristics based on these temperature profiles, affecting phenomena such as air pressure and density.
Air doesn't necessarily cool as it moves up, generally hotter air is lighter and so moves upward. However in the atmosphere the pressure gradually decreases with altitude, pressure and temperature are state functions and change according to one another. Generally if the pressure decreases (as it does with altitude) the temperature too, decreases.
