Two types of Ozone
• Stratosphere
• Troposphere
Two types of Ozone
Stratosphere (good) Troposphere (bad)
What is Ozone
• Oxygen
• Each Oxygen atom:
– 8 protons
– 8 neutrons
– 8 electrons
What is Ozone
• Ozone is an Oxygen molecule
Atom Structure
• Protons and Neutrons in Nucleus
• Electrons in the cloud
Electron Numbers
• A neutral atom has
# Protons = # Electrons
• The inner shell has no more than 2 electrons
• The outer shell has no more than 8 electrons
• All atoms WANT 8 electrons in the outer shell.
• It makes them complete.
This atom WANTS 3 more electrons.
Why?
Nitrogen
This atom WANTS 5 more electrons.
Why?
What is an atom
that it WANTS to
bond with?
Al + N ALN
Try bonding Ozone
Two types of Ozone
Troposphere (bad)
This is how
bad ozone is
created.
Two types of Ozone
Stratosphere (good)
This is how
good ozone
is destroyed.
• Ozone Layer: A form of oxygen gas that makes up
a layer of the stratosphere, where it filters out UV
radiation from the sun.
• The production and emission of Chlorofluorocarbons
(CFC’s) is the leading cause of depletion.
• A Chlorine atom is removed from the CFC and
attracts 1 of the 3 oxygen atoms in the ozone
molecules.
• CFC’s can come from cooling systems, fire
extinguishers, Styrofoam containers, home insulation,
plastic foam, and throwaway food containers.
Hole in Ozone Layer
The South Pole has a hole in the Ozone layer
• Stratospheric ozone hole discovered in 1975 by
Sherwood Roland and Mario Molina.
• Reappeared every year since then during the
Antarctic winter.
