Ozone is a isotope of oxygen having three atoms of oxygen.In the stratosphere when the UV rays reach from sun then it reacts with O2 molecule and breaks it into two monoatoms of oxygen which combine with another O2 molecule forming O3 respectively but since O3 is unstable hence it again breaks into O2 and the whole process continues.
What else can I help you with?
What chemicals are good for the ozone layer?
Oxygen. Nitrogen also helps ozone form (as long as water vapor is not around).
Is the ozone in the atmosphere a form of carbon?
No its not. Ozone is a form of oxygen.
What is another form of the element oxygen that is beneficial in the upper atmosphere?
Ozone (which is O3). It helps protect from ultraviolet light.
How thunder helps our ozone layer?
Yes thunder makes ozone. It is because when thunder passes through oxygen due to electrical discharge the oxygen molecules disintegrate and thus form nascent ozygen which on reaction with oxygen molecule form ozone. This process is used in the formation of artificial ozone in an ozoniser. The pleasant smell during lightning is of the formation of ozone.
What is the compound O3?
Oxygen as an atom is O, however in the natural world oxygen does not exist as a single atom as this is unstable. The stable form of oxygen is two atoms linked together to form an oxygen molecule which is O2
What is the ozone hole and how does it form?
The ozone layer is a layer of ozone gas. The layer is present in stratosphere. It helps in protecting earth.
What chemicals are good for the ozone layer?
Oxygen. Nitrogen also helps ozone form (as long as water vapor is not around).
How is incoming solar radiation is affected by the ozone in the atmosphere?
The solar radiation can be divided into many parts. The UV radiation part of it helps to form the ozone.
What is ozone and why are you so concerned with it?
The ozone is triatomic form of oxygen. It is very important as in the stratosphere region it helps to block the harmful UV radiations from the sun.
What is the ozone layer of your atmosphere?
The ozone is the triatomic form of ozone. It is present in the form of ozone layer in the atmosphere.
Is the ozone in the atmosphere a form of carbon?
No its not. Ozone is a form of oxygen.
What is another form of the element oxygen that is beneficial in the upper atmosphere?
Ozone (which is O3). It helps protect from ultraviolet light.
What contains the ozone?
The stratosphere contains the ozone. It is in the form of ozone layer.
What gas molecule found in Earths atmosphere is made up of three oxygen atoms?
The gas molecule is ozone (O3). It is formed when oxygen (O2) molecules are split apart by ultraviolet radiation in the upper atmosphere and then recombine to form ozone. Ozone helps to protect Earth from harmful ultraviolet radiation from the sun.
Why ozone is in layer form?
The ozone layer is in layer form. It is due to the gravity.
What is the ozone hole and why does it form?
