Ozone molecule. Molecular model of an ozone molecule (O3). Three oxygen atoms (red spheres) are joined together,forming an allotrope. Ozone is produced in the stratosphere by the action of high-energy ultraviolet (UV) radiation on oxygen. It forms a stable layer,known as the ozone layer,which screens the Earth from harmful UV radiation | |
