Ozone is a molecule composed of three oxygen atoms (unlike the normal oxygen molecules which contains only two oxygen atoms). All ozone has the same composition, there is only one kind of ozone. Whether ozone is considered to be good or bad depends upon the location of the ozone, not the composition. Ozone at high altitudes is good, because it protects us from ultraviolet radiation from the sun. Ozone at ground level is bad, because it is harmful to our health if we inhale it.

What chemicals make up the ozone layer?

The ozone layer is made up of ozone molecules only. These molecules are reactive in nature.


Extra charge you pay when buying chemicals for ozone clean up?

Not sure what you mean by "ozone clean up" Ozone "spills" are self cleaning, as ozone decays back to oxygen. If the duration of ozone exposure is high, you may have to replace any polymeric material that was "soaked" in it. Ozone is made from air (or oxygen), and cleaning with ozone may require no other chemicals, just the electricity to make the gas stream and then ozone in it.


What is ozone and how it is depleted?

Ozone is a gas molecule made up of three oxygen atoms. Ozone depletion occurs when certain chemicals, such as chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs) and halons, are released into the atmosphere. These chemicals break down ozone molecules, leading to thinning of the ozone layer in the stratosphere.

What are facts about ozone and cfc's?

Ozone is a molecule made up of three oxygen atoms and is found in Earth's stratosphere, where it forms the ozone layer that helps protect us from harmful UV radiation. Chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs) are a group of man-made chemicals that were once commonly used in refrigerants, aerosol propellants, and solvents. CFCs are harmful because they break down ozone molecules in the stratosphere, contributing to ozone depletion.

What is up with the ozone layer?

Ozone layer depletion is going on as CFC gases which are pollutants are responsible for the depletion of ozone layer. CFC convert ozone to oxygen and make it useless for the absorption of UV radiation.
