3 Minutes How can one compound have two very different characteristics? Click on the correct explanation.HINT: Think about the differences between good and bad ozone. A) Not possible; all ozone is bad.B) Not possible; ozone is good because of the benefits it provides in the form of shielding us from damaging ultraviolet rays. Ozone has no bad effects, and maybe we can start to manufacture some ozone to replace that being destroyed by chloroflourocarbons.C) This is because ozone occurs at two different levels. Ozone in the stratosphere exists in a range between 15-35 kilometers above the Earth and is beneficial because it prevents ultraviolet rays that cause cancer from reaching the Earth where they are damaging to many lifeforms. So-called "bad" ozone is produced near the Earth's surface.D) There is insufficient current knowledge on the effects of ozone. |
