What forms the Ozone layer?
Ozone is a tri oxygen molecule. It is formed in a natural process by the action of UV light on oxygen molecule.
How is a molecule of ozone different from a molecule of atmospheric oxygen?
Ozone is a tri oxygen molecule. While the ozone layer is formed by the collection of large number of ozone molecules.
Is ozone a molecule of an element?
Ozone is a molecule. Its formula is O3.
What do you get when you remove 1 molecule from ozone?
You get nothing, since ozone is a molecule.
Is ozone organic?
No ozone is not organic molecule. It is a pure inorganic molecule.
What happens if chloroflorocarbon increases in the ozonelayer?
the uv rays will hit the cfc molecule and chlorine atom breaks awaythe chlorine atom hits the ozone molecule and forms a molecule of oxygen and a molecule of oxygen and a molecule of oxygen and a molecule of chlorine monoxide.an oxygen atom hits the chlorine monoxide and forms a molecule of oxygen leaving the chlorine atom.now the chlorine atom is free to its depletion.one chlorine atom is good enough to dameage millions of ozone.
How does a cfc molecules affect attact on ozone molecules?
The Sun's light breaks the chlorine (or bromine) form the molecule, forms a temporary compound with something else, and ozone attacks that molecule and releases the chlorine (or bromine) again.
The average relative mass of an ozone molecule is 48.0 you. An ozone molecule contains only oxygen atoms. What does this molecular weight indicate about the formula of the ozone molecule?
The ozone molecule (O3) has 3 oxygen atoms.
Molecule of oxygen?
The element oxygen has two molecular forms: O2 for 'plain' oxygen gas and O3 for ozone
What happens when a CFC molecule comes near a ozone molecule?
When CFC molecule comes near ozone, it reacts with it. This leads to depletion of ozone layer.
What answer best describe an O3 molecule?
Each atom in ozone is connected to another atom by 1.5 bonds. Scientists previously believed that a molecule such as ozone switched rapidly back and forth between its different resonance forms. More recent experiments have shown that the molecule actually assumes the average of all the resonance forms, with the electrons delocalized.
How is ozone formed over the troposphere?
Ozone forms over the equator where the rays of sunlight are the strongest and then flows toward the poles.
