Question

why ozone is called atrophic form of oxygen?

Answer 1

Stratospheric ozone is formed naturally by chemical reactions involving solar ultraviolet radiation (sunlight) and oxygen molecules, which make up 21% of the atmosphere. ... In each reaction, an ozone molecule is lost and other chemical compounds are produced.

Answer 2

Ozone. Triatomic oxygen (ozone, O3), is a very reactive allotrope of oxygen that is destructive to materials like rubber and fabrics and is also damaging to lung tissue. Traces of it can be detected as a sharp, chlorine-like smell, coming from electric motors, laser printers, and photocopiers.
