Why does O3 act as a powerful oxidising agent?
Advertisements
उत्तर
Ozone is not a very stable compound under normal conditions and decomposes readily on heating to give a molecule of oxygen and nascent oxygen. Nascent oxygen, being a free radical, is very reactive.
O3
O2 + [O]
Ozone oxygen Nascent oxygen
Therefore, ozone acts as a powerful oxidising agent.
