Nitrogen oxides emitted from the exhaust system of supersonic jet aeroplanes slowly deplete the concentration of ozone layer in upper atmosphere. Comment. |
|
Answer» Solution :There is a possibility that nitrogen oxides (particularly nitric oxide), which are emitted from the exhaust SYSTEMS of supersonic jet planes react with ozone. This PROCESS slowly depletes the concentration of ozone layer in the UPPER atmosphere. The REACTION involved is as under : `NO(g) + O_3(g) to NO_2(g) + O_2(g)` |
