What are some of the factors that affect the production of ozone?

Answer 1

ozone is merely oxygen with a new twist. instead of 2 atoms it attaches 3 and becomes ozone. When this happens it becomes very unstable and it tends to fight to leave its triatomic stage to its more natural biatomic state. That is why the ozone layer becomes perforated. Many studies have shown that other factors affect the ozone layer but even if this factors did not exist, ozone, oxygen in its triatomic unstable state will still generate holes in the ozone layer with the only explanation that oxygen will fight to go back to its biatomical state.

Answer 2

UV-C from the Sun breaks apart oxygen molecules into individual atoms. Some of the oxygen atoms recombine (eventually) to form ozone. The lion's share of UV-C from our Sun is has been absorbed by the time the light reaches the bottom of the stratosphere.

Answer 3

# Availability of oxygen # Availability of ionizing energy (UV-C or more energetic light or energetic electrons) # Lack of presence of water vapor (blocks a path of ozone production, where nitrogen acts to briefly carry a single oxygen atom) Other factors affect the subsequent decay of ozone...

Answer 4

The ozone layer depletion is mainly caused due to the use of ozone depleting substances used by human beings. These are CFC containing products like deodorant's, refrigerators, spray cans etc.

Answer 5

Chloroflurocarbons (CFCs) and carbon emissions.

Answer 6

There are factors responsible for ozone layer depletion. Volcanic eruptions, car's exhaust, greenhouse gases, water vapor, CFC's etc are responsible.

Answer 7

UV rays produce ozone. It is produced naturally.

Answer 8

The 2 factors that contribute are:

1. Use of CFC's in AC's, Deodorants etc.
2. Natural ways that include volcanic eruptions, UV rays etc.

Answer 9

The substances that lead to depletion of ozone layer are called ozone depleting substances. CFC is one of the component of these ODS.
