What is a ozone layer?
  • 1 answers

Meghna Thapar 4 years, 5 months ago

The ozone layer is a deep layer in the stratosphere, encircling the Earth, that has large amounts of ozone in it. ... Interestingly, it is also this ultraviolet radiation that forms the ozone in the first place. Ozone is a special form of oxygen, made up of three oxygen atoms rather than the usual two oxygen atoms. The ozone layer, also called the stratosphere, is composed of the ozone gas (90% of the total ozone in the atmosphere). The ozone has three oxygen atoms, and it is the result of the action of Ultra Violet (UV) radiation on oxygen molecules, composed of two oxygen atoms.
