Question

Rank these gases in the atmosphere from most abundant to least abundant: oxygen, nitrogen, argon, carbon dixoide.

a. oxygen, carbon dioxide, nitrogen, argon
b. nitrogen, oxygen, argon, carbon dioxide
c. nitrogen, carbon dioxide, oxygen, argon
d. carbon dioxide, argon, nitrogen, oxygen

Answer 1

B.) Nitrogen, Oxygen, Argon, Carbon dioxide

Answer 2

b. nitrogen, oxygen, argon, carbon dioxide.

Step-by-step explanation:

• The most abundant gas in the Earth atmosphere is the nitrogen. The percentage of nitrogen in the atmosphere is 78.08%.
• The second most abundant gas in the atmosphere is oxygen. The amount of percentage of oxygen in atmosphere is 21.95%.
• Water vapor is varies in the atmosphere according to the regions. The amount of water present is in between 0 to 4%.
• The amount of argon which is present in the Earth atmosphere is 0.93%.
• And the amount of carbon dioxide present in the atmosphere is approximately 0.0360%.
• Therefore, by the above it can be say that the rank from the most abundant to the least abundant gases in the atmosphere is changes as, nitrogen, oxygen, Argon and carbon dioxide.
