Answer» Correct Answer - D Ozone is formed, when energy is supplied to dioxygen in the form of UV radiation or silent electric discharge. `3O_(2_((g))) Leftrightarrow 2O_(3_((g))),DeltaH=142.7" kJ mol"^(-1)` Since `O_3` is an endothermic molecule, so it is necessary to use a silent electric discharge, otherwise sparking would generate heat and decompose it. This is the laboratory method. a) Exposure of `O_2` of air UV light also form `O_3`. This occurs in atmosphere, when photochemical smog is formed over cities like Delhi, Los Angeles or Tokyo. (b). `2H_(2)O+2F_(2) to 4HF+O_(2)` `3H_(2)O+3F_(2) to 6HF+O_(3)` (c). `SO_(2)+H_(2)O_(2) to H_(2)SO_(4)` |
