How does the arrangement of the air molecules found in the troposphere compared to the arrangement of those found in the thermosphere

Question:

How does the arrangement of the air molecules found in the troposphere compared to the arrangement of those found in the thermosphere

A The air molecules are closer together in the troposphere and are farther apart in the thermosphere.

B The air molecules are farther apart in the troposphere and are closer together in the thermosphere.

C The number of air molecules is the same in the troposphere as in the thermosphere.

D There are fewer air molecules in the troposphere than in the thermosphere.

Answer:

Option A: The air molecules are closer together in the troposphere and are farther apart in the thermosphere.

Explanation:

The troposphere is the bottom most area of the Earth's atmosphere, where crowds of air are quite well blended combinedly and the temperature declines with altitude. The air is intense from the ground above due to the surface of the Earth engrosses energy and heats up quicker as compared to the air. Whereas, the Earth's thermosphere is the sheet of the atmosphere which is first comes in contact to the Sun's radiation and so gets heated first by the Sun. The air is so shrill that a minor rise in energy can lead to a great rise in temperature.
