How many of the following statements are correct ? 1. Good ozone is found in the stratosphere. 2. UV radiation having a lower wavelength than UV -B is almost completely absorbed by the Earth's atmosphere. 3. UV - B causes snow blindness and cataract. 4. dB is a unit to measure the thickness of ozone.

Stratosphere contains a stable layer of ozone molecules which absorbs UV radiation from the sun. The presence of ozone in atmosphere serves, as a shield to protect living organism on earth from the harmful effects of the solar ultraviolet radiation. The ultraviolet radiation are known to cause skin cancer. Ozone is formed in stratosphere by the following photochemical reactions. O_(2)(g)overset(UV)rarrO(g)+O(g) O(g)+O_(2)(g)overset(UV)hArrO_(3)(g) Ozone is thormodhynamically unstable and ecomposes to molecular oxygen. Thus a dynamic equilibrium exits between the production and decomposition of ozone molecules. The air pollutant which are responsible to deplete the ozone layer is

Curved anterior bone of the shoulder (pectoral) girdle in vertebrates. 2. A shallow cavity of scapula that articulates with the head of the humerus. 3. Part of the skeleton that helps to articulate the limb bones to the main skeleton 4. Total number of bones present in the human body. 5. A long bone of the upper arm that articulates with the glenoid cavity of the scapula. 6. Irregular, small bones that look like pebbles and are present in two layers. 7. A large cup-shaped articular cavity of the hip bone which fits the large, round head of the thigh bone.

When heathly earth's stratosphere contains a low concentration of ozone (O_(3)) that absorbs potentially harmful ultraviolet (UV) radiations by the cycle shown below: Chloroflouro carbon refrigerants, such as freon 12(CF_(2)Cl_(2)) , are stable in lower atmosphere but in the stratosphere, they absorb high energy UV radiation to generate chlorine radicals. CF_(2)Cl_(2) overset(hv)(to) CF_(2)Cl+Cl The presence of small number of chlorine radicals appears to lower ozone concentrations dramatically. The following reactions are all known to be exothermic (except the one requiring light) and to have high rate constant. A:Cl-O-O-Cloverset(hv)(to)O_(2)+2Cl^(*) B: Cl_O^(*)+O to O_(2)+Cl^(*) C:Cl^(*)+O_(3) to Cl-O^(*)+O_(2) D:2Cl-O^(*) to Cl-O-O-Cl Q. Ozone has the ability to absorb
