No, they are different forms of the same element, so they are allotropes. Oxygen contains two atoms per molecule and ozone contains three atoms per molecule. Isotopes are atoms of the same element with different numbers of neutrons, such as oxygen-16 and oxygen-17.

Why does it matter which isotope of oxygen you breath?
Because some isotopes of Oxygen are toxic (ozone for example) !
What element twith an allotropic form ozone?
Triatomic oxygen (Ozone, O3), is a very reactive allotrope of oxygen that is destructive to materials like rubber and fabrics and is also damaging to lung tissue.[4] Traces of it can be detected as a sharp, chlorine-like smell,[3] coming from electric motors, laser printers, and photocopiers. It was named "ozone" by Christian Friedrich Schönbein, in 1840, from the Greek word ὠζώ (ozo) for smell.[5]
In the ozone layer ozone is created when oxygen?
Ozone is created by the oxygen molecules. When the UV falls on oxygen, ozone is formed.
Now many isotopes in oxygen-16?
Oxygen-16 IS an isotope of oxygen. If you meant to ask the number of isotopes of oxygen, the answer is 3. They are Oxygen-16, -17 and -18. Oxygen-16 is the most abundant of the isotopes.
What does ozone have to do with oxygen?
Ozone is an allotrope of oxygen. It is the tri-atomic form of oxygen atom.

In the ozone layer ozone is created when oxygen .?
Ozone is created by the oxygen molecules. When the UV falls on oxygen, ozone is formed.
Is ozone a nascent oxygen?
No, ozone is not nascent oxygen. Ozone is triatomic form of oxygen atom.
Is hydrogen radioactive?
Not necessarily. Ozone is a molecule made up of oxygen atoms. A molecule is not radioactive, but its atoms might be. Radioactivity is a function of the arrangement / number of nucleons in the nucleus of an atom. It is possible to make ozone from one or more radioactive iosotopes of oxygen. But simply forming ozone does not make the atoms radioactive. Ozone generators, especially corona based ones, make a lot of electrical noise that can be picked up with a radio. But the "radio activity" stops when the generator is turned off. And it has nothing to do with ozone, but everything to do with the tiny "lightning bolts" used to make ozone. Ozone is unstable, and decays with time. So in that way, it is like a radioactive element, in that it has a half life. But unlike radioactive elements, ozone's half life is a function of what its environment is, temperature, humidity, and solar radiation.
Where do you get ozone oxygen?
Oxygen and ozone are allotropes. These are made of oxygen atoms. Ozone is its three atomic form.
How are oxygen and ozone differernt?
Oxygen and ozone are different. Oxygen is the diatomic form of oxygen atmon while ozone is the triatomic form.
What is added to oxygen to create ozone?
In order to create ozone oxygen is addded to nascent oxygen. Then ozone is formed.
In the ozone layer ozone is created when oxygen?
Ozone is created by the oxygen molecules. When the UV falls on oxygen, ozone is formed.
List two radioactive isotopes of oxygen?
Oxygen-15 and oxygen-13.
What is the atomicity of oxygen in ozone?
Atomicity of oxygen in ozone is 3.
How are the properties of ozone and oxygen different?
Oxygen and ozone are completely different in properties. Ozone is a pollutant on breathing, while oxygen is not.
