In the upper atmosphere, ozone is produced from oxygen gas in the following reaction. 3O2(g) → 2O3(g) Assume an atmosphere where p(O2) = 0.075 atm, and where T = 298 K. Below what pressure of O3 will ozone production be spontaneous? (Enter your answer in atm). ((Use the formula ΔG=ΔGo + RTlnQ for this reaction, and plug in the known ΔGo, T and p(O2) for an overall ΔG=0, and solve for p(O3). Be careful not to round off on your calculator for this one.))

In the upper atmosphere, ozone is produced from oxygen gas in the following reaction.
3O2(g) → 2O3(g)
Assume an atmosphere where p(O2) = 0.075 atm, and where T = 298 K. Below what pressure of O3 will ozone production be spontaneous? (Enter your answer in atm).
((Use the formula ΔG=ΔGo + RTlnQ for this reaction, and plug in the known ΔGo, T and p(O2) for an overall ΔG=0, and solve for p(O3). Be careful not to round off on your calculator for this one.))
