Chemical Model Animation of O3 Absorbing Low-energy UV
|
Ozone is a strong absorber of lower energy ultraviolet radiation which can kill living organisms. This radiation is absorbed by the ozone layer when it breaks the ozone bonds. An oxygen atom is released, but the atom quickly re-combines with another oxygen molecule to regenerate ozone.
