It floats around like a gas. When it is at ground level, it is a pollutant. When it is between the Sun and life with DNA, it protects them from UV-B radiation.

Which ozone layer screens out mutanigenic ultraviolet radiation?
The ozone present in stratosphere does this job. It is present as the ozone layer.
Why don't CFCs remove ozone in the troposphere?
CFCs only interacts with stratospheric ozone because the ultraviolet light is much stronger at that altitude. UV breaks down the CFCs to release ionic chlorine (and bromine from Halons) which react with ozone to produce oxygen and atomic oxygen. Ozone does not directly interact with these compounds. It takes energetic light to "deplete ozone" with these compounds. Water vapor does a good job...
How is ozone in the stratosphere the same as the troposphere?
No. The ozone is stratosphere is good ozone. The ozone in troposphere is bad ozone.
What cause troposphereic ozone?
The tropospheric ozone is bad ozone. It acts as a pollutant.
What is the difference between stratospheric ozone and photochemical ozone?
Stratosphere ozone is good ozone. Photo chemical ozone is pollutant.
Which ozone layer screens out mutanigenic ultraviolet radiation?
The ozone present in stratosphere does this job. It is present as the ozone layer.
What is the job of the ozone layer of the stratosphere layer?
The job of ozone layer to protect us from UV rays. These are fatal rays of sun.
Is the ozone job good or bad?
Ozone is good at the stratosphere. It is bad at the ground level.
What is the current situation of our ozone layer?
Weakening - but still doing its job.
Does the atmosphere protect the earth from harmful radiation?
Yes, it does. The ozone hole does this job.
Is the antimicrobial activity of chlorine due to the formation of ozone?
No. Chlorine is not energetic enough to form ozone. Chlorine is a systemic poison, so it takes a relatively long time to do its job.

Is there a website in which has job opportunities for 14 year olds in south ozone park queens?
Check the New York City website for summer teen opportunities in the South Ozone Park Queens area. County or city government will post library or recreation facility jobs for teen during the year. Look through the job search engine Snag -A-Job. This website is recommended for young job seekers.

No. The ozone is stratosphere is good ozone. The ozone in troposphere is bad ozone.
What cause troposphereic ozone?
The tropospheric ozone is bad ozone. It acts as a pollutant.
What gas molecule found in Earths atmosphere is made up of three oxygen atoms?
You are thinking of ozone.
What percent of ozone do you find in the stratosphere where the ozone layer is found?
Most of the ozone is found there. The ozone present there is good ozone.
