  • Ozone Factfile
    OZONE CHEMISTRY: This site aims to provide information on the chemistry of ozone and provide some useful links to other pages. Ozone is an atmospheric compound, found both at ground level and in the stratosphere. It also is responsible for various chemical reactions. Ozone is crucial for life as we know it, preventing harmful radiation from reaching the earth. But, it also has a not so nice side. Low level ozone is partly responsible for photochemical smog's in our cities and also presents a health hazard. This site will give you the low down on low and high level ozone, as well as having a look at the ozone hole and the chemistry behind this unique compound. Ozone Factfile Standard State: gas Boling temperature: -111.9 °C Melting temperature: -195.5 °C Specific Gravity: 2.144 Formula: O3 Colour: Pale Blue Occurs: naturally in troposphere Formed: From nitrogen oxides and organic oxides emitted as a product of combustion engines or from passing an electric current through air. The name ozone comes from the Greek ozein, for "to smell". It is an allotropic form of oxygen having three atoms in each molecule, formula O3. It is, in standard state, a pale blue, highly poisonous gas with a strong odour. Liquid ozone is a deep blue and strongly magnetic. Ozone is formed when an electric spark is passed through oxygen, and causes a detectable odour near electrical machinery. The commercial method of preparation consists of passing cold, dry oxygen through a silent electrical discharge. Ozone is much more active chemically than ordinary oxygen and is a better oxidising agent.

Based on laboratory tests, we propose that the background OH signal observed in our IPI-LIF-FAGE instrument during the aforementioned campaigns is caused at least partially by SCIs. This hypothesis is based on observed correlations with temperature and with concentrations of unsaturated volatile organic compounds and ozone.

Reaction of stabilized Criegee Intermediates (SCIs) with SO2 was proposed as an additional pathway of gaseous sulfuric acid (H2SO4) formation in the atmosphere, supplementary to the conventional mechanism of H2SO4 production by oxidation of SO2 in reaction with OH radicals.
