How does the lightning and thunder affect the ozone layer?

Lightning and thunder react with oxygen to form ozone. Thus they help in replenishing the ozone layer.


Does lightning repair the ozone?

No, lightning does not repair the ozone layer. Lightning can actually contribute to the depletion of ozone by producing nitrogen oxides, which are ozone-depleting substances. The ozone layer is repaired naturally through complex chemical processes over time.


What positive results occur because of lightning strikes?

Lightning is known to create nitrogen oxides. These chemicals can react with others in sunlight to produce ozone which will help to rebuild and replenish our thinning ozone layer.


Does Lightning clean the atmosphere?

Yes, lightning can help clean the atmosphere by producing ozone, which can break down pollutants and improve air quality. Additionally, lightning can also trigger chemical reactions that help remove pollutants from the air.


After a lightning strike what is the smell?

After a lightning strike, the smell often reported is ozone. Ozone has a sharp, metallic scent that is reminiscent of chlorine or bleach.

How thunder helps our ozone layer?

Yes thunder makes ozone. It is because when thunder passes through oxygen due to electrical discharge the oxygen molecules disintegrate and thus form nascent ozygen which on reaction with oxygen molecule form ozone. This process is used in the formation of artificial ozone in an ozoniser. The pleasant smell during lightning is of the formation of ozone.


How does lightning affect the ozone layer?

Lightning is a massive flow of electrons, that superheats gas to a conductive plasma state, and radiates broad spectrum energetic radiation... including ionizing radiation. Either the oxygen atoms in the plasma, or the ionizing radiation breaks apart oxygen molecules to make oxygen atoms, then some of these now-loose oxygen atoms combine with oxygen molecules to make ozone.


Is ozone that is made by lightning harmful?

Lightning produces ozone in the upper atmosphere, contributing to earth's protective ozone layer that filters out harmful UV rays from the sun. Lightning contributes negligibly to ground level ozone, which is harmful.


Does lightning have a beneficial effect on the ozone layer?

Yes, it does. It helps to replenish the ozone.


Can oxygen form ozone when it interacts with lightning.?

Yes.


Does lightning destroy the ozone?

no, it is too low in the atmosphere.
