IMPORTANCE OF OZONE(O3) IN DAY TO DAY LIFE. Content Warning.
Ozone is an odorless, colorless gas made up of three oxygen molecules (O3) and is a natural part of the environment. It occurs both in the Earth's upper atmosphere, or stratosphere, and at ground level in the lower atmosphere, or troposphere. Ozone is formed when heat and sunlight cause chemical reactions between oxides of nitrogen (NOX ) and Volatile Organic Compounds (VOC), which are also known as Hydrocarbons. Ozone is an inorganic molecule, with a pale blue gas with a distinctively pungent smell. Often called photochemical "smog," ozone is harmful to breathe. Ozone aggressively attacks lung tissue by reacting chemically with it. When ozone is present, there are other harmful pollutants created by the same processes that make ozone. The name ozone derives from ozein, the Greek neuter present participle for smell, referring to ozone's distinctive smell.
