Question

What is ozone? Show the reactions of formation of ozone from oxygen in the atmosphere.​

Answer 1

Answer:

Ozone, or trioxygen, is an inorganic molecule with the chemical formula O ₃. It is a pale blue gas with a distinctively pungent smell. It is an allotrope of oxygen that is much less stable than the diatomic allotrope O ₂, breaking down in the lower atmosphere to O ₂.

Stratospheric ozone.

In the first step, solar ultraviolet radiation breaks apart one oxygen molecule (O2) to produce two oxygen atoms (2 O) (see Figure Q2-1). In the second step, each of these highly reactive atoms combines with an oxygen molecule to produce an ozone molecule (O3).

Answer 2

Answer:

Ozone is a type of layer which covers the earth's atmosphere and protects us from Ultraviolet rays from the sun.....
