Answer:

Explanation:

Air in the atmosphere does not get heated up due to a combination of reasons. Firstly, the atmosphere reflects most of the heat back and only a portion of heat from Sun's radiation makes it through. 

The heat that does get through heats up the Earth more than the air in the atmosphere because in the air, the heat gets converted into kinetic energy of the molecules. As the molecules are not densely packed, they are able to absorb the energy which increases their kinetic energy and they move about expending this energy. The same is not possible in the case of land..
