Question

Out of the total at any time, water present in the atmosphere is

• A. 0.01%
• B. 0.02%
• C. 0.001%
• D. 0.005%

Answer 1

The correct option is C 0.001%

• In the atmosphere, water exists as a gas (water vapor from evaporation), as a liquid (droplets of rain and liquid water that coats solid particles), and as a solid (snow and ice).
• The water in the atmosphere makes up only a very small percentage of the total water on Earth i.e 0.001%.
• Hence Out of the total at any time, water present in the atmosphere is 0.001%.
• So, the correct answer is '0.001%'.
