    The document describes the chemical makeup of Earth's atmosphere as a mixture of gases. It states that the atmosphere is composed of nitrogen at 78%, oxygen at 21%, argon at less than 1%, and trace gases making up very small percentages that account for the remaining 1%. The document also notes that varying compounds such as water, pollution, and dust are present in the atmosphere.
