ozone is merely oxygen with a new twist. instead of 2 atoms it attaches 3 and becomes ozone. When this happens it becomes very unstable and it tends to fight to leave its triatomic stage to its more natural biatomic state. That is why the ozone layer becomes perforated. Many studies have shown that other factors affect the ozone layer but even if this factors did not exist, ozone, oxygen in its triatomic unstable state will still generate holes in the ozone layer with the only explanation that oxygen will fight to go back to its biatomical state.

Decomposition of ozone can be caused by?

Ozone can be decomposed by absorbing an ultraviolet (UV) photon. This is how ozone protects us from UV light. Ozone is unstable, and decays with time. Ozone is photocatalytically decayed by chlorine or bromine. Some ozone production is blocked by water vapor, and water vapor also provides a decay path for ozone.


Effect of CO2 to the ozone layer depletion?

CO2 does not directly deplete the ozone layer. However, it contributes to global warming, which in turn can affect the ozone layer. Warmer temperatures in the stratosphere can degrade ozone molecules. Additionally, some chemicals emitted along with CO2, such as nitrous oxide, can also contribute to ozone depletion.


Is the ozone layer depleted by carbon dioxide?

No. Carbon dioxide cannot be further ionized without more energy than ozone itself carries. However ozone is made by combining an oxygen molecule with an extra oxygen atom. CO2 can temporarily hold the oxygen atom until some other molecule comes along that can accept it. So CO2 may either help or hinder the *production*of ozone, depending on what other contaminants it encounters... and when.See the related questions section below.no


How biotic and abiotic factors affect crop production?

Biotic factors such as pests, diseases, and competition from other organisms can negatively impact crop production by reducing yields. Abiotic factors such as soil quality, temperature, water availability, and sunlight influence plant growth and development, with suboptimal conditions leading to decreased crop productivity. Farmers must manage both biotic and abiotic factors to optimize crop production.

What is ozone deleption?

The concentration of ozone in the "ozone layer" varies naturally over some range, based on season and other factors that do not involve the presence of Man. Add in Man's contributing factors, and the concentration of ozone at any point in the "ozone layer" is depressed... allowing more "UV-B" to reach Earth's surface. These factors in the ozone layer can include (in no particular order) reduction in available oxygen, increase in temperature, increase in moisture / humidity, addition of molecules / particulates that will destroy ozone, or molecules / particulates that compete with oxygen molecules for UV more energetic than 215nm .
