what causes ozone to be produced in an individual
Ozone or tri-oxygen (O 3) is mostly prominent in the earths atmosphere (20-50 Km above the surface of the earth). It is produced when oxygen molecules (O 2) dissociate into their constituent atoms under the influence of UV-C radiation (below 240 nm) and then combine with O 2 molecules to form ozone. Ozone can also be formed in the lower atmosphere from nitrogen oxides and other pollutants by photochemical reactions.
