How is ozone produced in stratosphere?

Answers (1)

The UV radiations that fall on the ozone layer breaks the oxygen molecule into free oxygen(O) atoms; these free atoms of oxygen then react with molecular oxygen to form ozone.

O_{2} (g) \rightarrow O (g) + O (g)

O (g) + O_{2} (g) \rightarrow O_{3} (g)
