Answer 2

Answer:

c) 500

Explanation:

• A millionth of Earth's mass, or around 5.5 quadrillion tonnes, is made up of the atmosphere. The atmosphere of Earth is made up of minute suspended particles of dust, soot, smoke, and chemicals. The atmosphere of the earth weighs around 500 million tonnes overall.
• It extends from the planet's ocean, land, and ice-covered surface outward into space, with its density being highest near to the surface.
• At sea level, the air molecules are crushed by the weight of the air above and sit close together, making the air heavier (and hence easier to breathe). However, when elevation rises, the air's molecular structure opens up and becomes lighter.
