It causes an Ultraviolet-visible absorption, a process where a molecule absorbs ultraviolet or visible light that excites electrons (making them high energy). This energy causes an electronic transition from a ground state (non-excited) to an excited state. subscribe to my channel on YouTube channel/UCSkT4bzBlR9cE8gSIQvN-Nw

Ozone gas absorbs UV radiation in the Earth's atmosphere.


Which molecule do not absorb microwave radiation?

Ozone does not absorb microwave. It only absorbs UV.


Does ozone reflect or absorb UV radiation?

Ozone absorbs UV radiation.


What allotrope of oxygen absorbs UV rays?

There are two: # oxygen, O2, absorbs UV-C and more energetic radiation, # ozone, O3, absorbs UV-B and more energetic radiation.


Which region absorbs harmful ultraviolet radiation?

The ozone layer in the stratosphere absorbs harmful ultraviolet (UV) radiation from the sun. This layer acts as a shield, preventing most of the UV radiation from reaching the Earth's surface, where it can cause harm to living organisms, including humans.


What happen to a molecule when it absorbs uv light?

When it absorbs UV light, it decomposes. It also replenishes it.


Does the ozone layer reflect or absorb UV radiation?

The ozone layer absorbs UV radiation.


What does the atmosphere do to some of the radiation?

It absorbs some of the radiation. The radiation is UV rays.


UV radiation will dissociate oze into an oxygen atom and an oxygen molecule?

Ultraviolet (UV) radiation can break apart Ozone (O3) molecules into an oxygen atom (O) and an oxygen molecule (O2) through a process called photodissociation. This is a key step in the ozone-oxygen cycle in the Earth's stratosphere, where ozone absorbs UV radiation to protect the planet from harmful UV rays.


How does ozone absorb UV radiation in the Earth's atmosphere?

Ozone in the Earth's atmosphere absorbs ultraviolet (UV) radiation by breaking apart into oxygen molecules when it absorbs UV light. This process helps to protect the Earth's surface from harmful UV radiation.
