Question

formation of ozone is​

Answer 1

Answer:

Ozone is formed when heat and sunlight cause chemical reactions between oxides of nitrogen (NOX ) and Volatile Organic Compounds (VOC), which are also known as Hydrocarbons. This reaction can occur both near the ground and high in the atmosphere.

Answer 2

Explanation:

Formation of Ozone

The reaction of UV radiation with O2 or dioxygen molecules results in the formation of O3. The UV radiation splits the oxygen molecule into the free oxygen or O atoms. These O atoms combine with molecular form of oxygen to form ozone (O3). It is thermodynamically an unstable compound and has a tendency to decompose into molecular oxygen. Therefore, a constant dynamic equilibrium is present between the production and decomposition of O3 molecules.

O2(g) → O(g) + O(g)

(in presence of UV Radiation)

O(g) + O2(g) ↔ O3(g)
