How can you tell if you are affected by ozone?

A person affecting by ozone starts feeling dizzy. Ozone at ground level is a pollutant.


What do ozone readings tell you about a location?

Ozone readings of a location tell you about the CFC gases released at that place. Because CFC gases cause depletion of the ozone layer.


What attaches itself to the jet stream and tells you where the stratsophere begins?

Ozone particles; part of the ozonosphere.


How do you know the ozone layer exists?

Get an x-ray or MRI, and have them look for scar tissue. Likely you would be spitting up blood when you breathed, if you had done acute damage to your lungs. I breathed ozone, and besides a headache and general weakness, my lungs are fine.


What is the stratoshere?

The stratosphere is the layer above the troposphere (where we live). The ozone layer is found in the lower stratosphere. The stratosphere is the lowest layer where temperature increases with increasing altitude.


If the ozone layer breaks in half will people still be able to live on the other half of the earth?

Yes. And the Sun will rapidly form ozone over the broken half, so that in a couple of days, you could not tell it had been broken.


What controls the climate and protects the earth from harm full sun rays?

atmosphere A+


How can you tell if you are being infected by ozone?

Ozone is not infectious. Ozone is produced (along with other powerful oxidants) by the white blood cells in your bloodstream. Exposure to ozone in the air you breathe may / could bring on symptoms like asthma symptoms, plus headaches and tiredness.


What can you do to help reduce the ozone layer?

Ozone in the troposphere must be reduced to stop people and organisms from developing respiratory problems and reduced lung function. Ozone molecules in the troposphere are considered a pollutant. This is where doing things such as reducing your vehicle usage via public transport and walking/riding a bike is considered a good way to reduce the amount of O3 molecules in the troposphere as O3 requires NOx (either NO or NO2) to be produced, as in the equation: NO2 + sunlight --> NO + O which leads to production of O3 by: O(from above) + O2 --> O3 As we can see sunlight is needed, so driving at night instead of during the day can also help. Other ways of reducing ozone include: * Avoiding prolonged idling or jack rabbit starts. * Postpone mowing lawns until evening. * Use latex rather than oil based paints. * Save energy ¾ don't overcool houses or offices. * Wash dishes or clothes with full loads. * Reduce industrial VOC and NOx emissions. Ozone in the stratosphere is important not to reduce as this 'good' ozone layer keeps UV radiation busy in the process of making and destroying ozone molecules so that it doesn't reach the Earth's surface where it can damage plants and animals.


Can you tell one triatomic gas?

Ozone is a triatomic gas


Would the process of the ozone depletion be more rapid during the day or night?

Depletion in the daytime would only be noticeable between days, or over years. There is always less ozone overnight. Ozone is made during the day, and decays when there is no UV-C to make more. On the other hand, there are some ozone destruction pathways that require light in order to complete the catalytic cycles... for example chlorine and bromine do require light (water vapor does not). Depletion is NOT a "short term" thing, that you can tell minute by minute how the ozone layer is doing.


How do you convince whatever you did to another human being is very hurtful and wrong to anyone affected by it?

tell them you are sorry and live up to that comitment
