What is a reason that the ozone near the earths surface is dangerous?
Ozone at ground level is a pollutant. It is a greenhouse gas.
How does the ozone layer reduces the amount of ultraviolet radiation that reaches earths surface?
Ozone layer contains ozone molecules in abundance. These molecules decompose themselves to absorb ozone.
Which gas prevents damaging ultraviolet radiation from the sun from reaching earths surface?
Ozone
Which atmospheric temperature zone is between 8 and 32 miles above the earths surface and contains an abundance of ozone?
Stratosphere is the layer of atmosphere which contains the ozone. The ozone is located as the ozone layer.
What will be the effect on radiation received at earths surface of a decrease of ozone in the stratosphere?
Decrease of ozone in the stratosphere could cause UV to enter the surface. These could cause skin cancer and the immune system to weak.
What is the Ozone layer distance from the surface of the earth?
There is no fixed distance of the ozone from surface. It is said to be an approximate of 15 to 55 km.
What is a reason that the ozone near the earths surface is dangerous?
Ozone at ground level is a pollutant. It is a greenhouse gas.
How high up in the atmosphere is the ozone layer?
The ozone layer is 12 - 15 km above the earths surface
What contains the ozone layer which acts as a protective shields for earths surface?
Stratosphere contains the ozone layer. It is present as a pool of ozone molecules.
What is the distance between the ozone layer and earth's surface?
The ozone layer is spread up to a great place. The estimate distance from the surface is 15 to 35 kilometers.
What layer of the atmosphere protects the earths surface from UV rays?
The Ozone layer.
How the ozone shield protects living things on the earths surface?
The ozone layer protects the earth and the organisms on the earth's surface by absorbing the UV rays from our sun
How does the ozone layer reduce the amount of ultraviolet radiation that reaches earths surface?
Ozone is (relatively) opaque to ultraviolet light.
How does the ozone layer reduces the amount of ultraviolet radiation that reaches earths surface?
Ozone layer contains ozone molecules in abundance. These molecules decompose themselves to absorb ozone.
What is the distance above earths surface?
Infinity
Which gas prevents damaging ultraviolet radiation from the sun from reaching earths surface?
Ozone
What is the Average distance from the surface of the earth to the ozone layer is?
The average distance of ozone layer is 25 km. It is due to suitable condition.
