Answer:

Ozone is a gas in the atmosphere that protects everything living on the Earth from harmful ultraviolet (UV) rays from the Sun. Without the layer of ozone in the atmosphere, it would be very difficult for anything to survive on the surface.

Explanation:

Ozone layer, also called ozonosphere, region of the upper atmosphere, between roughly 15 and 35 km (9 and 22 miles) above Earth’s surface, containing relatively high concentrations of ozone molecules (O3). Approximately 90 percent of the atmosphere’s ozone occurs in the stratosphere, the region extending from 10–18 km (6–11 miles) to approximately 50 km.

Of the following systems, which contains the most heat?

densk [106]

Answer:d

Explanation:

Given systems are state of matter and do not contain any heat instead Heat is required to change Phase or raise the temperature of the particular system.

For example 600 kg of ice at $0^{\circ}C$

Heat Required to convert it to water at $0^{\circ}C$ is

$Q=m\times L$

Where L=latent heat of Fusion $=334 J/gm$

$Q=600\times 334\times 1000$

$Q=200.4 MJ$
