Mercury has a surface pressure that is near enough zero or a vacuum, since the planet holds no real atmosphere due to its small size and proximity to the sun.
The atmosphere on Venus is very thick, giving it a high surface pressure, some 93 times that of the Earths. Carbon Dioxide makes up around 96.5% of the atmosphere with around 3.5% Nitrogen. There are also small amounts of sulfur dioxide (0.0015), carbon monoxide (0.0017%), water vapour (0.002%), argon (0.007), helium (0.0012%) and Neon (0.0007%).
Earth has an atmosphere of 78.08% Nitrogen and 20.95% Oxygen, with 0.93% Argon and 0.038% Carbon Dioxide. Around 1% of the atmosphere is water vapour, with traces of other gases such as Neon, Xenon and Carbon Monoxide. Earths atmosphere is thicker than Mars', but not nearly as thick as Venus'.
Mars has a thin atmosphere, mainly of Carbon Dioxide (95.32%). Nitrogen makes up 2.7%, Argon 1.6%, Oxygen 0.13% and Carbon Monoxide makes up around 0.08%. There are other trace gases such as Water Vapour, Neon, Krypton, xenon, Molecular Hydrogen and Nitric Oxide. Mars' surface pressure is around 0.7 kPa, around 0.7% of Earths surface pressure.
Jupiter's atmosphere is mainly Hydrogen (around 90%), Helium (around 10%), with small amounts (minor gases) of Methane (around 0.3%), Ammonia (0.026%), Hydrogen Deuteride (0.003%), Ethane (0.0006%) and Water vapour (0.0004%).
Saturn's atmosphere is mainly Hydrogen (around 96%), Helium (around 3%), with small amounts of Methane, Ethane and Ammonia.
Uranus' atmosphere is mainly Hydrogen (around 83%), Helium (around 15%) and Methane (around 2.3%).
Neptune's atmosphere is mainly Hydrogen (around 80%), Helium (around 19%) and Methane (around 1%).

What is the atmospheric composition of each plant?
what is the atmospheric com compostion of each planet
The gaseous layer surrounding a planet?
The gaseous layer surrounding a planet is Atmosphere. Each planet has different atmospheric content.
What atmospheric gases help to heat the earth?
The atmospheric gases carbon dioxide, methane and nitrous oxide are all greenhouse gases that help to heat the Earth.
What keeps the gases of outer planets from escaping?
The planet's strong force of gravity holds the atmosphere down and stops it escaping. Atmospheric gases have masses, and the Earth's atmosphere has a mass of about 1.2 kg per cubic metre.
What dominant atmospheric gases are on mercury?
The dominant gas on Mercury is oxygen, which makes up 42 percent of the planet's atmosphere, followed by sodium, which makes up 29 percent. Other gases include hydrogen and helium.
What is the atmospheric composition of each plant?

Can you use eddied in a sentence?
The whirlpool swirled and eddied. The atmospheric gases eddied in the planet's atmosphere.
What is atmospheric?
The atmosphere refers to the envelope of gases surrounding the planets like the earth.
The gaseous layer surrounding a planet?
The gaseous layer surrounding a planet is Atmosphere. Each planet has different atmospheric content.
What are the two main atmospheric gases and what is the approximate percentage of each one in the atmosphere?
The two main atmospheric gases are nitrogen and oxygen. The approximate percentage for nitrogen is 78% and oxygen's approximate percentage is 21%.
What are the atmospheric gases on the planet Mercury?
By volume, they are:Oxygen (42%), Sodium (29%),Hydrogen (22%),Helium (6%),rest (traces).
Name of the gases which each planet have in our solar system?
Hydrogen and helium.
What percentage of your atmospheric gases is oxygen?
My atmosphere is the same as your atmosphere since we all live on the same planet. Oxygen makes up about 19.5% of the atmosphere.
What atmospheric gases help to heat the earth?
The atmospheric gases carbon dioxide, methane and nitrous oxide are all greenhouse gases that help to heat the Earth.
How are atmospheric gases like the gases in a greenhouse?
The glass on the greenhouse stops temperature from leaving or entering like the gases do to the earth.The atmospheric gases are called 'greenhouse gases' based on the idea that the gases 'trap' heat like the walls of a greenhouse do
What is Neptune's atmospheric gases?
it is hydrogen
What keeps the gases of outer planets from escaping?
The planet's strong force of gravity holds the atmosphere down and stops it escaping. Atmospheric gases have masses, and the Earth's atmosphere has a mass of about 1.2 kg per cubic metre.
