Ozone is formed when
a. two oxygen molecules combine
b. an individual oxygen atom combines with an oxygen molecule
c. ultraviolet radiation breaks apart four oxygen molecules
d. oxygen molecules are broken into separate atoms
select the best answer from the choices provided

The right option is; b. an individual oxygen atom combines with an oxygen molecule

Ozone is formed when an individual oxygen atom combines with an oxygen molecule.

Ozone (O3) is an allotrope of oxygen that has three atoms in the molecules instead of the normal two. Ozone is poisonous and it is a highly reactive blue gas that is generated from oxygen by electrical discharge. Ozone is formed in the atmosphere when some molecules of oxygen (O2) absorb energy from the ultraviolet (UV) radiation and break apart to form single oxygen atoms. These atoms then merge together with the remaining oxygen (O2) to form ozone (O3) molecules. In the upper atmosphere, ozone functions as a shield, protecting the earth from ultraviolet radiation.

Ans.

Ozone gas (O3) is a toxic, colorless gas, with pungent smell and acts as a powerful oxidizing agent. It is formed from the oxygen by UV light (ultralight light) and electrical sparks.

Formation of ozone takes place in two steps. During first step, an oxygen molecule (O2) is photolyzed and produces two atoms of oxygen (2 O). In second step, one of these oxygen atom (O) combines with another oxygen molecule and form ozone gas (O3).

Thus, the correct answer is option b). 'an individual oxygen atom combines with an oxygen molecule.'

what is the aerea shown

explanation:

you did not attach the discourse, but i assume it to be the discourse on the origin and basis of inequality among men (the original titile in french is: "discours sur l'origine et les fondements de l'inégalité parmi les hommes"), also know as "second discourse". in this discourse, jean-jacques rousseau emphasizes that private property is the basis of all inequalities.

therefore, what enabled the old regime to maintain as long as it did was private property.
