प्रश्न
How the supersonic jet aeroplanes are responsible for the depletion of ozone layers?
Advertisements
उत्तर
Nitrogen oxide emitted from the exhausts of supersonic jet aeroplanes readily combine with ozone to form nitrogen dioxide and diatomic oxygen.
NO(g) + O3(g) →NO2(g) +O2(g)
Since supersonic jets fly in the stratosphere near the ozone layer, they are responsible for the depletion of ozone layer.
