Question

The clouds in the atmosphere of Venus consist primarily of a. water b. CO2 gas and droplets of sulfuric acid c. dust particles d. oxygen e. nitrogen and oxygen

Answer 1

Answer:

b. CO₂ gas and droplets of sulfuric acid

Explanation:

Atmosphere of Venus -

Venus atmosphere is occupied by the layer of gases .

The composition being , carbon dioxide which is very hot and dense in comparison to the carbon dioxide of the Earth .

The pressure on the planet Venus is 93 bar with a temperature of 740 K.

The atmosphere of Venus have Opaque clouds made of sulfuric acid .

Hence , the answer is CO₂ gas and droplets of sulfuric acid

The atmosphere of Venus is the layer of gases surrounding Venus. It is composed primarily of carbon dioxide and is much denser and hotter than that of Earth. The temperature at the surface is 740 K (467 °C, 872 °F), and the pressure is 93 bar (9.3 MPa), roughly the pressure found 900 m (3,000 ft) underwater on Earth.[1] The Venusian atmosphere supports opaque clouds made of sulfuric acid, making optical Earth-based and orbital observation of the surface impossible. Information about the topography has been obtained exclusively by radar imaging.[1] Aside from carbon dioxide, the other main component is nitrogen. Other chemical compounds are present only in trace amounts.
