Which layer of atmosphere has maximum concentration of ozone?

Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

**Step-by-Step Solution:** 1. **Understanding Ozone**: Ozone is a molecule composed of three oxygen atoms (O3). It exists in two forms: "good ozone" and "bad ozone." 2. **Location of Ozone**: - **Bad Ozone**: This type of ozone is found in the lower part of the atmosphere, which is known as the troposphere. It is considered harmful due to its association with air pollution and health issues. - **Good Ozone**: This type of ozone is found in the upper part of the atmosphere, specifically in the stratosphere. ...

    The ozone layer of the atmosphere blocks

    Assertion (A): The ozone layer is a regionof concentration of the ozone molecule (O_(3)) in the Earth's atmosphere. The layer sits at an altitude of about 10-50 kilometers, with a maximum concentration in the stratosphere at an altitude of approximately 25 kilometers. Reason (R): In recent years, scientists have measured a seasonal thinning of the ozone layer primarily at the South Pole. This phenomenon is being called the ozone Hole,

    What part of the atmosphere contains the ozone layer? i.e. - Where is most of the ozone?
