Excess energy (energetic light or energetic electrons) will break apart an oxygen molecule, forming two oxygen atoms. Likewise, nitrogen molecules are also broken apart into nitrogen atoms. Those oxygen and nitrogen atoms will recombine in most cases, making hot oxygen and nitrogen. But in non-zero percentages, ozone, nitrous oxide, nitrogen oxide, and even more complex assemblies are the result. Not all reactions return to their lowest level in the first step. Sometimes "free radicals" are the result.
"destruction of ozone in the upper atmosphere"
Air pollution containing ozone and other reactive chemical compounds formed by the action of sunlight on nitrogen oxides and hydrocarbons, especially those in automobile exhaust.
# Replant # Reduce commerical flights above "cloud level" # Re-engingeer processes that produce / require compounds that destroy ozone to use compounds that either can't diffuse to the "ozone layer", are not persistent, or are not catalysts to ozone destruction
its made of nitrogen and oxygen and some ozone.
Ozone can react with atomic hydrogen at the temperature of liquid nitrogen forming the strange oxide H2O4.
Weather contributes to the formation of bad ozone. Thunder causes oxygen molecule to change into ozone.
The reactions for formation of ozone include UV decomposing. It also causes its replenishment.
YES, IT DOES. It is a greenhouse gas. It causes global warming. It then causes ozone depletion.
CFC's gas is formed. These are highly reactive compounds that deplete ozone.
"destruction of ozone in the upper atmosphere"
Stratospheric pollution means depletion of ozone layer (ozone hole) by certain compounds like CFCs, oxides of nitrogen .
The primary source of emission leading to the formation of surface ozone as a pollutant is the release of nitrogen oxides (NOx) and volatile organic compounds (VOCs) from human activities, such as fossil fuel combustion, industrial processes, and vehicle emissions. These emissions react with sunlight to form ozone, particularly in areas with high levels of NOx and VOCs.
Ozone
Compounds that contain double or triple bonds, such as alkenes or alkynes, can react with ozone. This reaction results in the breaking of the double or triple bond and the formation of oxygen-containing compounds. This reaction is commonly known as ozonolysis.
Ozone requires the following components for formation: oxygen, UV light of 215nm wavelength or shorter. Some nitrogen compounds also assist in forming ozone, even without VOCs being present. Ozone is decreased by time, temperature, water vapor, molecules that are oxidized by ozone, and molecules that catalyze ozone destruction. Water vapor also serves to block the "nitrogen assitance" path of ozone formation. Any increase in destroyers of ozone, or reduction in progenitors of ozone will serve to decrease the amount of ozone present at any particular place. Additionally, UV-B or more energetic light from the Sun destroys ozone. If the contaminants get to the ozone first, UV-B makes it to Earth's surface. UV-C or more energetic light will get stopped by other things in the atmosphere.
The destruction of ozone layer is caused by chlorofluorocarbons. These compounds initiate a chain reaction in the ozone layer which destroys these molecules.
carbon monoxide,nitrogen gas,carbondioxide are some of the gases that coming from the sun are causes for thinning of the ozone
