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]

Which element absorbs UV rays from the sun?
Oxygen is the element which, in the allotropic form known as ozone, absorbs UV rays from the sun. Off course, lots of other elements will do so. UV radiation does not penetrate lead, iron, zinc, etc. But those elements are not found in the atmosphere. It's the ozone that matters.
Is diamond C an element or compound or homogeneous mixture or heterogeneous mixture?
Pure substance; it is one form of pure carbon.
Where is ozone on periodic table of elements?
Ozone is not on the periodic table because it is not a pure substance, an element. Ozone is, however, a molecule made from one type of element, oxygen, which is eighth on the periodic table. It is a molecule of three oxygen atoms, O3.
What two elements are red or reddish?
Bromine is an element which is red in color and it is the non-metal which exists in liquid state.One of the allotropic form of phosphorus also exists in red color.
What is the compound O3?
Oxygen as an atom is O, however in the natural world oxygen does not exist as a single atom as this is unstable. The stable form of oxygen is two atoms linked together to form an oxygen molecule which is O2
IS a chemical of 3 bonded oxygen molecules?
If you think to ozone the chemical formula is O3; ozone is a molcule, an allotropic form of oxygen.
Why diamond the hardest material know is a natural form of an element?
Diamond is an allotropic form of carbon.
What atoms do oxygen have?
The molecule of oxygen is diatomic - O2. The allotropic form ozone (O3) has 3 atoms in the molecule.
What forms an ozone molecule?
Ozone is an allotropic form of oxygen , in upper atmosphere it prevents the harmful sun rays and is converted into oxygen molecule. 2O3 = 3O2
Which element absorbs UV rays from the sun?
Oxygen is the element which, in the allotropic form known as ozone, absorbs UV rays from the sun. Off course, lots of other elements will do so. UV radiation does not penetrate lead, iron, zinc, etc. But those elements are not found in the atmosphere. It's the ozone that matters.
Which element has the ability to form a triatomic molecule known as ozone?
The oxygen element has such an ability. The triatomic form is called ozone molecule.
Ozone is an alltrope of this element?
Ozone is the allotrope of oxygen. It is the triatomic form.
Is ozone a solution?
No, ozone, a form of the element oxygen, is a pure substance.
What element has ozone as a allotrope?
Oxygen has ozone as allotrope. It is the triatomic form of oxygen.
Is an ozone an element?
Not in and of itself. Ozone is a form, or allotrope, of the element oxygen.
Is diamond C an element or compound or homogeneous mixture or heterogeneous mixture?
Pure substance; it is one form of pure carbon.
What elements are in the stratosphere?
The main element in the stratosphere is the ozone gas. It is present in the form of ozone layer.
