Concluding Thoughts. Ozone is found in two different layers of the atmosphere-the troposphere and the stratosphere. The stratospheric ozone, or good ozone, protects life on earth from harmful effects of the sun's UV rays. We have good reason to be concerned about the thinning of the ozone layer in the stratosphere.
Ozone is formed in the troposphere by various chemical reactions involving a combination of the oxides of nitrogen, reactive volatile organic compounds (VOC) produced by a combination of exhaust from automobiles in the form of unburned hydrocarbons, and diatomic oxygen in the presence of sunlight (Figure 12).zone is formed in the troposphere by various chemical reactions involving a combination of the oxides of nitrogen, reactive volatile organic compounds (VOC) produced by a combination of exhaust from automobiles in the form of unburned hydrocarbons, and diatomic oxygen in the presence of sunlight (Figure 12).
