The top 2 are nitrogen and oxygen.
If a star shows the same absorption lines as the sun in its spectrum, it indicates that the star has a similar composition to the sun. The presence of specific absorption lines is related to the elements present in the star's atmosphere, so matching lines suggest similar chemical composition.
The 700 mb level of the atmosphere is 10,000 feet in the air. This level is the second level used for measuring the atmosphere in the troposphere, so 1/5 of the atmosphere is located below it.
Yes, a majority of gamma rays are blocked by the Earth's atmosphere. The atmosphere acts as a shield against the harmful effects of gamma rays by absorbing and scattering them. Only a small fraction of gamma rays from space can penetrate into Earth's atmosphere.
Shooting stars, or meteors, are typically seen as white or yellow streaks of light as they burn up in Earth's atmosphere. The color can vary depending on the composition of the meteoroid and the elements present that react with the atmosphere. Occasionally, meteors can also appear green, blue, or even red due to the ionization of different elements.
In addition to hydrogen and helium, the Sun contains elements such as oxygen, carbon, neon, and iron, among others. These elements make up a small fraction of the Sun's total mass but play important roles in the Sun's structure and energy production through nuclear fusion reactions.
The question is not sufficiently specific. Where and over what period?
Percentage composition= (mass of the element/mass of the molecule)*100 The fraction of the molecule's mass that comes from the element's mass
Radioactive elements make up a small fraction of all naturally occurring elements in Earth's crust. Most elements are stable and non-radioactive. However, even though they are a minority, radioactive elements play important roles in various scientific, medical, and industrial applications.
The thermosphere, which is located above the mesosphere, contains only a tiny fraction of the atmosphere's mass. Despite its low density, it can reach very high temperatures due to the absorption of solar radiation.
Well the chocolate valley and whipped cream hills comprise about 53 percent...
Petrol has a lower viscosity than fuel oil because petrol is a more refined product consisting of lighter hydrocarbons, while fuel oil contains heavier hydrocarbons and impurities. The lighter hydrocarbons in petrol flow more easily due to weaker intermolecular forces, resulting in lower viscosity compared to the heavier hydrocarbons in fuel oil.
About 1/5
It is a fraction in which one of the elements - usually the numerator - is 1.

A thin layer of gases covering the Earth, more than half less than 5 miles from the surface, but with wisps going up to about 1000 miles (or more). The composition (near the surface) is 79 % nitrogen, 20% oxygen, and 1% argon. There is also a tiny fraction of water vapor, CO2, and methane.
The amount of water in the earth's atmosphere is 1/3000.
