What else can I help you with?
What protects us from the suns uv rays?
The thing which protects us from suns UV rays is the ozone. It is an allotrope of oxygen element.
What is ozone and how does it protect us?
Ozone is an allotrope of oxygen. It protects us by absorbing the UV rays.
What kind of allotrope of oxygen whichabsorbs muchof the harmful ultraviolet ray from the sun?
Ozone is the allotrope of oxygen.It protects us from UV rays of the sun.
What in the atmosphere absorbs UV rays?
Ozone in the atmosphere absorbs UV rays.
Does ozone absorbs x rays?
No, it doesn't. It only absorbs UV rays.
How does stratospheric ozone absorb ultraviolet radiation?
Nitrogen breaks down into atoms when it absorbs UV-C or more energetic radiation. Oxygen breaks down into atoms when it absorbs UV-C or more energetic radiation. Ozone breaks down into atoms when it absorbs UV-B or more energetic radiation.
Ozone is an allotrope of what element?
Ozone is a tri oxygen molecule. It is formed in a natural process by the action of UV light on oxygen molecule. It is an allotrope of oxygen.
What gas is responsible for absorbing the uv rays?
Ozone is the gas in the Earth's stratosphere that absorbs most of the Sun's harmful ultraviolet (UV) radiation. It acts as a protective layer, preventing the UV rays from reaching the Earth's surface and causing damage to living organisms.
Which gas in the atmosphere absorbe uv RAYS?
Ozone absorbs the UV rays. It is present as ozone layer.
What upper layer traps ozone?
The upper layer of ozone absorbs the UV rays. These are high energy UV radiations.
What layer of the atmosphere is most affected by the suns UV rays?
The stratosphere, where nitrogen and oxygen molecules are broken apart. Some the oxygen atoms recombine with oxygen molecules (eventually) to form ozone, which absorbs more UV (UV-B specifically).
What is a uv ray absorber?
Ozone absorbs UV rays. It is present in stratosphere.
