Stratosphere is the majority of Ozone that protects against the high energy radiation of the sun. Ozone is an allotrope of oxygen. It is the necessary protective component of upper atmosphere but considered a pollutant in the atmosphere.

In troposphere temperature increases with increasing ltitude. Ozone was discovered in 1913 by French Physicists called Henri Buisson and Charles Fabry. 97 TO 99 percent of sun’s medium-frequency ultraviolet light are absorbed on the Ozone layer.

Phosphorus (P) is the element with the atomic number 15. Which of the
viva [34]

Explanation:

   Isotopes:

                          ₁₅³¹P   and     ₁₅³²P

     Given parameters:

       ₁₅³¹P                                                   ₁₅³²P          

   Mass number = 31                                    32

   Atomic number = 15                                 15

The two atoms are isotopes. Now let us derive numbers of their subatomic particles

                       ₁₅³¹P                                             ₁₅³²P  

Protons              15                                                 15

Electrons           15                                                  15

Neutrons         (31-15) = 16                               (32-15) = 17

Because they are isotopes, they differ in the number of neutrons alone.

Isotopy is the existence of two or more atoms of the same element having the same atomic number but different mass numbers due to the differences  in the number of their neutrons.

We clearly see that the mass number and number of neutrons pertaining to the atom differs. This makes them isotopes.

How is carbon dioxide used by plants
Igoryamba

whenever humans exhale carbon dioxide, plants take it in and use it to make a mixture of sunlight and water to create nutrients for itself. Once it creates the nutrients it releases oxygen which us humans use to breathe. This operation is called photosynthesis.

How does the acidity of acid rain compare to the acidity of natural rainwater
jekas [21]

Answer:

The acidity level of water is measured by the pH scale. Pure water has a pH of 7, which is neutral. However, natural rainwater actually has a pH of 5.6 because it gets exposed to the gases in the atmosphere, making it a bit acidic. True acid rain will have a pH level measuring from 5.0-5.5.
