Question

how is ozone generated in stratosphere?
​

Answer 1

Explanation:

Stratospheric ozone is formed naturally through the interaction of solar ultraviolet (UV) radiation with molecular oxygen (O2). The "ozone layer," approximately 6 through 30 miles above the Earth's surface, reduces the amount of harmful UV radiation reaching the Earth's surface.

Answer 2

Explanation:

Ozone is naturally produced in the stratosphere by a two- step reactive process. In the first step, solar ultraviolet radiation (sunlight) breaks apart an oxygen molecule to form two separate oxygen atoms. ... In the over- all process, three oxygen molecules plus sunlight react to form two ozone molecules.
