The atomicity of oxygen in ozone is 1.5 times that of oxygen in oxygen molecule derive the formula of ozone?
Ozone at the higher levels of the atmosphere is a product of UV radiation acting on oxygen (O2) molecule. The higher energy UV radiations split apart some molecular oxygen (O2) into free oxygen (O) atoms. These atoms then combine with the molecular oxygen to form ozone as shown--- O2 → O + O (in the presence of UV) O + O2 → O3 (ozone)
Where is over 95 percent of incoming ultraviolet radiation absorbed?
in the atmosphere;in the Ozone Layer(The ozone molecules filter out the harmful UV rays.)
Which substance present in the atmosphere is responsible for the absorption of solar radiation with a wavelength less than 242 nm?
Oxygen is responsible for the absorption of solar radiation with a wavelength less than 242nm. UV radiation splits oxygen into atoms and the atoms combine with other oxygen molecules to form ozone. Generally, all multi-atom?æ compounds are capable of absorbing UV radiation when the wavelength is short.
Why non metals are not absorbed by Atomic Absorption Spectroscopy?
Because nonmetallic elements are in vacuum UV
Is styrene UV resistant?
The pure polystyrene is not resistant to UV radiation - yellowing effect in time. But a polystyrene with antioxidants as additives can resist much; this type of polystyrene is named light-stabilized.
Which form of light is absorbed or reflected by the ozone layer?
UV light is absorbed by the ozone layer. It is the harmful part of sun's radiation.
Does UVA radiation get absorbed by ozone?
It does not. It only absorbs UV-B radiation.
What is Earths incoming ultraviolet radiation absorbed by?
Nitrogen, Oxygen (UV-C and more energetic), and Ozone (UV-B and more energetic)
What type of radiation is not absorbed by the ozone layer and can cause a lot of damage to your bodies?
UV is absorbed by ozone. It is fatal radiation of the sun.
What type of radiation is completely absorbed?
UV rays are completely absorbed. They are harmful radiations from the sun.
What part of heart absorbs UV radiations?
You meant to say HEAT? UV radiation is a part of sun and is absorbed by UV.
What does the ozone layer covert UV radiation into?
Ozone doesn't convert UV, it absorbs it. The absorbed UV converts ozone.
If the UV radiation from the sun is absorbed in the thermosphere, what happens to the temperature?
It decreases.
What layer of the atmosphere is harmful UV radiation absorbed?
Ozone absorbs the UV rays. It is present in the stratosphere.
Over 95 of incomeing uv-b radiation is absorbed in the stratosphere?
Yes, it is. It is absorbed the ozone layer.
What allotrope of oxygen absorbs UV rays?
There are two: # oxygen, O2, absorbs UV-C and more energetic radiation, # ozone, O3, absorbs UV-B and more energetic radiation.
How much of ultraviolet radiation is absorbed by the sun?
None, the sun emits UV.
