Which gas emitted from supersonic jet dilutes the ozone layer?
Answers
Nitrogen dioxide as a gas is emitted from the tail of the jet planes which fly in the air. This gas is responsible for diulution of the ozone layer which is present in the atmosphere of the earth.
The ozone layer is one of the most important layer which is present in the earth's atmosphere which protects the earth from various harmful ultraviolet rays which are present in among the incoming solar radiation which is filtered by the ozone layers.
The supersonic jet aero plane emits the NO2 (Nitrogen oxide) which can readily mix and combine with the ozone layer gas for forming the diatomic oxygen and the Nitrogen dioxide.
The combination can deplete the ozone layer for making it thinner or creating a hole in the layer.
The ozone shield or layer can be defined as the region of the stratosphere of earth that can absorb the ultraviolet radiation of the Sun.
