Expert Solution & Answer
To determine
The difference between the oxygen we breathe and the ozone located in the earth's stratosphere.
Explanation of Solution
The difference between the oxygen we breathe and the ozone located in the earth's stratosphere is following.
Oxygen we breathe | Ozone located in the earth's stratosphere |
1. Oxygen used for breathe by living thing is made by two atoms of the oxygen. | 1. Ozone present in the earth's stratosphere is made by three atoms of oxygen. |
2. The chemical formula of Oxygen used for breathe by living thing is | 2. The chemical formula of Ozone present in the earth's stratosphere is |
3. This is ordinary oxygen and mainly present in the atmosphere troposphere layer. | 3. This is a special form of oxygen and mainly present in the atmosphere stratosphere layer. |
