No, they are different forms of the same element, so they are allotropes. Oxygen contains two atoms per molecule and ozone contains three atoms per molecule. Isotopes are atoms of the same element with different numbers of neutrons, such as oxygen-16 and oxygen-17.

Why does it matter which isotope of oxygen you breath?

Because some isotopes of Oxygen are toxic (ozone for example) !

What element twith an allotropic form ozone?

Triatomic oxygen (Ozone, O3), is a very reactive allotrope of oxygen that is destructive to materials like rubber and fabrics and is also damaging to lung tissue.[4] Traces of it can be detected as a sharp, chlorine-like smell,[3] coming from electric motors, laser printers, and photocopiers. It was named "ozone" by Christian Friedrich Schönbein, in 1840, from the Greek word ὠζώ (ozo) for smell.[5]


In the ozone layer ozone is created when oxygen .?

Ozone is created by the oxygen molecules. When the UV falls on oxygen, ozone is formed.


Is ozone a nascent oxygen?

No, ozone is not nascent oxygen. Ozone is triatomic form of oxygen atom.


Where do you get ozone oxygen?

Oxygen and ozone are allotropes. These are made of oxygen atoms. Ozone is its three atomic form.


Is hydrogen radioactive?

Not necessarily. Ozone is a molecule made up of oxygen atoms. A molecule is not radioactive, but its atoms might be. Radioactivity is a function of the arrangement / number of nucleons in the nucleus of an atom. It is possible to make ozone from one or more radioactive iosotopes of oxygen. But simply forming ozone does not make the atoms radioactive. Ozone generators, especially corona based ones, make a lot of electrical noise that can be picked up with a radio. But the "radio activity" stops when the generator is turned off. And it has nothing to do with ozone, but everything to do with the tiny "lightning bolts" used to make ozone. Ozone is unstable, and decays with time. So in that way, it is like a radioactive element, in that it has a half life. But unlike radioactive elements, ozone's half life is a function of what its environment is, temperature, humidity, and solar radiation.


What is the atomicity of oxygen in ozone?

The atomicity of oxygen in ozone is 3. This means that each molecule of ozone contains three oxygen atoms.


How are oxygen and ozone differernt?

Oxygen and ozone are different. Oxygen is the diatomic form of oxygen atmon while ozone is the triatomic form.


What is added to oxygen to create ozone?

In order to create ozone oxygen is addded to nascent oxygen. Then ozone is formed.

What are pair of isotopes 1. oxygen and ozone 2.ice and steam 3.nitric oxide and nitrogen dixoide 4.hydrogen and deuterium?

Oxygen and ozone: Oxygen isotopes include O-16, O-17, and O-18, while ozone is a molecule composed of three oxygen atoms (O3). Ice and steam: Ice and steam are not isotopes, but different states of water. Ice is the solid state of water, while steam is the gaseous state of water vapor. Nitric oxide and nitrogen dioxide: Nitric oxide (NO) and nitrogen dioxide (NO2) are not isotopes but gas molecules containing nitrogen and oxygen. Hydrogen and deuterium: Deuterium is an isotope of hydrogen that has one proton and one neutron, while standard hydrogen (protium) has only one proton.
