Oxygen molecules are being separated by ultraviolet (UV-C and more energetic) radiation from the sun, causing the energy to be absorbed and dispersed. The free atoms then react with other oxygen molecules to form ozone; this reaction is in a rough equilibrium. Sooner or later, the oxygen atom/ozone react to reform the original oxygen molecules.
The ozone absorbs UV-B and more energetic radiation, and breaks apart to form oxygen again. Ozone also absorbs and reradiates a narrow band of blue visible light, and much of the far infrared... which is why it too is a greenhouse gas. It does not break apart when it does this, however.
What else can I help you with?
What happens when the ozone layer is completed?
When the ozone layer is completed, mankind would perish. There is no life without ozone.
What happens in the holes of the ozone layer?
The hole in ozone layer is the thinning of ozone layer. It causes the harmful UV radiations of the sun to enter the earth's surface.
What happens when the ozone layer is damage?
When the ozone layer is damaged, it will cause UV entering the earth. These are the fatal radiations of the sun.
What happens if ozone layer gets holes?
Ummm.........WE DIE!!
What happens to ozone layer if you do not recycle things?
If you do not recycle, pollution will increase. This will further increase ozone depletion.
What happens when chlorofluorocarbons come in contact with the ozone layer?
CFC's when come in contact with ozone deplete it. It reacts with it and decomposes it.
Why is the ozone layer named the ozone layer?
Ozone layer contains ozone in it. Therefore, it is named so.
What happens a the ozone layer becomes thinner?
When the ozone layer becomes thinner then the harmful UV rays will enter the surface of the earth. These radiations are fatal for life on earth.
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 is the name for the ozone layer in Tagalog?
ozone layer in Tagalog: ozone layer (no direct Tagalog translation)
What is the formed of ozone layer?
Ozone layer is formed of ozone. It is a gas.
What planet includes a layer of ozone?
Earth has a layer of ozone. It is present as the ozone layer.
