Why is argon counted in atmospheric composition despite its small amount?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: Because it is a relatively permanent and chemically inert gas
Atmospheric composition includes gases that are present consistently, even when their percentages are small. Argon makes up a small fraction of dry air, but it is relatively stable and chemically inert, so it remains a recognizable component of the atmosphere. Option D is correct. Argon is not water vapour, a dust particle, or the main substance forming the ozone layer.
