It will take maximum 10 minutes to have a look on it (general knowledge/general awareness for competition). Any questions and inquiries  (General Knowledge/General Awareness) most welcome feel free to contact us.

YOU MUST KNOW (GENERAL KNOWLEDGE) PART 10

• Below 60 KM oxygen occurs in the from of water vapour.
• The earth’s early atmosphere had a high temperature because of high amount of carbon dioxide.
• Non-hygroscopic are those particles which do not readily absorb or retain moisture.
• Methane is not a green house gas.
• Nitrogen in the atmosphere can be fixed by Cosmic radiation, meteor trails, lightning.

Meteor Trails fixing nitrogen

Nitrogen fixation by nitrogen

• Weather phenomena is confined in troposphere layer of the atmosphere.

Different layers in atmosphere.

• The  formation of ozone layer in the atmosphere is because of  absorption of of ultra violet radiation by oxygen , large number of photo-chemical reactions , dissociation of oxygen.

Ozone layer formation

• The formation of sedimentary rocks results withdraw nitrogen from the system.
• The main mass of hygroscopic  particles are composed of sea salts.
• The average amount of water vapour present in the parcel of air tends to decrease with increasing elevation & latitude.
• Ionosphere is the atmospheric layer which reflects radio waves.
• The noctilutent clouds found in the mesosphere is due to meteoric dust particles which act as condensation nuclei for high level convection that transports the water vapour upwards.

noctilutent clouds

• The lapse rate of atmosphere is 6.5°C for every 1 km.
• The hydrogen layer in the atmosphere begins at a height of 3540 KM.
• The troposphere contains about  75% of the total gaseous mass of the atmosphere.
• The Van Allen Radiation belts are belts of ionised particles.

Van Allen Radiation belts

• The lower portion of the thermosphere is composed mainly of  Oxygen and Nitrogen in molecular form.
• Airglow is produced by reactions between atoms and molecules of nitrogen, sodium, hydrogen & oxygen that have been excited  by solar radiations.
