You did not provide any options so i will give some facts that will hopefully help you in figuring out the correct answer.

Which gas is most effective in absorbing incoming harmful ultraviolet radiation in the earth's stratosphere before that radiatio
artcher [175]

Answer:

Ozone (O₃) gas

Explanation:

In the Earth's stratosphere, oxygen gas (O₂) is combined with atomic oxygen (O) to form ozone gas (O₃). This is very important because ozone protects the life on Earth from ultraviolet (UV) radiation from the Sun. UV radiation is high-energy radiation, and it is very dangerous for living organisms. Ozone molecule (O₃) absorbs UV radiation and it breaks down by forming O₂ and atomic oxygen (O) again. In this way, it protects the Earth from nocive radiation.
