Because of different structure and bonds between oxygen atoms
Examples:
- density: for oxygen is 1,429 g/L and for ozone is 2,144 g/L
- melting point: for oxygen is -218,79 oC and for ozone is -192,2 oC
Ozone. Which is entirely made up of oxygen atoms.Ozone gas from an ozone generator is usually mostly parent gas, with some percentage of ozone gas in it (replacing mass-per-mass, oxygen gas).
You are thinking of ozone.
Ozone (O3)is called an allotrope of oxygen and consists of three oxygen atoms. The color of ozone gas is lilac/bluish because the gas has a weak absorption in yellow and orange. Fluid ozone is bluish black, solid ozone is violet black.Oxygen (O2) is a colorless gas, fluid and solid oxygen have a pale blue color.
Ozone.
Ozone consists of three oxygen atoms (symbol is O3).
Oxygen and ozone have different properties. It is because of their atomic structure.
It is a gas at room temperature, pure ozone is rather reactive and more flammable than regular oxygen, and it is colorless.
The most abundant gas in the ozone layer is either Nitrogen or Oxygen.
Ozone. Which is entirely made up of oxygen atoms.Ozone gas from an ozone generator is usually mostly parent gas, with some percentage of ozone gas in it (replacing mass-per-mass, oxygen gas).
The ozone is made up of oxygen gas. 3 single atoms of oxygen form ozone.
Ozone is an allotrope of oxygen. It is made of three atoms of oxygen.
Ozone is a very useful gas. It absorbs most of the UV radiations from the sun.
You are thinking of ozone.
The ozone originally comes from the oxygen gas. It gets converted into ozone by UV rays.
Ozone is a triatomic gas. It is an allotrope of oxygen.
Ozone gas (O3) is formed when oxygen gas (O2) is exposed to ultraviolet radiation (UV-C) in the stratosphere. Molecules of oxygen gas are made of two oxygen atoms. The energy of the radiation breaks the gas moecules into oxygen atoms, some of which then interact with oxygen gas to form ozone.
The ozone layer is not composed of anything else. It is just composed of ozone molecules.
