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

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 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.


Why are there no hole in the ozone layer when spacecrafts leave the ozone layer?

The ozone layer is just a layer of gas, so while the ozone might get "stirred up" a bit, it does not form a hole. An ozone hole is not a physical hole; it's only an area in the ozone layer where the ozone levels are very low because of decomposition by chemicals. Consider this: If you move your hand through the air, does it leave a vacuum behind? No. The air around it fills in the space almost instantly. Same thing with the spacecraft going through the ozone layer.


Which layer of the atmosphere to nitrogen and oxygen together make up?

the ozone


We all know that Ozone layer has a hole is it possible to make an artificial Ozone layer above it so we are well protected?

No, we cannot make an ozone layer above it, below it, and we can't fill it in. We just have to stop dumping things into the atmosphere.There is too much energy above the ozone layer to let ozone survive.There is too much water vapor below the ozone layer to let ozone survive.We'd burn up all our fossil fuels trying to get ozone "up there", which would destroy more ozone than we ever made.


Where is the ozone layer found?

The ozone layer is found about 16miles up in our atmospere


What gasseous element is the ozone layer made of?

Ozone layer is made up of ozone. It is an allotrope of oxygen.


Answer to What is up?

"The ozone layer."


Will the ozone layer close up?

Ozone layer can close up. It depends if the use of ODS is banned completely.


Why the Ozone layer is made up of O2only?

Ozone layer is made of O2 only. It is because ozone is an allotrope of oxygen.


How are humans solving the hole in the ozone layer?

Things like spray on deodorant, air freshener, hair spray and more are destroying the ozone layer with the chemicals that are in them. The chemicals float up into the air and begin eating their way through.


What happened to the ozone layer in global warming?

The depletion of the ozone layer is not directly related to global warming. The ozone layer is being depleted by human-produced chemicals like chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs), which break down ozone molecules. Global warming, on the other hand, is primarily caused by the increase in greenhouse gases in the atmosphere, leading to the trapping of heat and resulting in rising temperatures on Earth.
