In which of the following layer of atmosphere there is more thickness of ozone layer ?

Correct answer: B. stratosphere

  • A. troposphere
  • B. stratosphere
  • C. mesosphere
  • D. photosphere

Explanation

Most atmospheric ozone is concentrated in the stratosphere, roughly 15 to 35 km above Earth's surface. It forms the ozone layer that absorbs much of the Sun's harmful ultraviolet radiation. The likely mistake is choosing the troposphere because it is the layer closest to Earth, although only a small amount of ozone occurs there.

About Real and Ideal Gases

An ideal gas is modelled as particles with negligible volume and no intermolecular attraction, obeying Boyle's, Charles's and Avogadro's laws through PV = nRT. Real gases deviate from this behaviour, especially at high pressure and low temperature, because particle volume and attractive forces matter; the van der Waals equation explains these corrections.
