Ozone (seestematically named 1,3λ1-trioxidane an catena-trioxygen), or trioxygen, is an inorganic molecule wi the chemical formula O
3
. It is a pale blue gas wi a distinctively pungent smell. It is an allotrope o oxygen that is much less stable nor the diatomic allotrope O
2
, breakin doun in the lawer atmosphere tae normal dioxygen. Ozone is formed frae dioxygen bi the action o ultraviolet licht an an aa atmospheric electrical discharges, an is present in law concentrations throuoot the Yird's atmosphere (stratosphere). In tot, ozone maks up anly 0.6 ppm o the atmosphere.
