Ozone is a reactive form of oxygen that is blue in color and has a strong scent, unlike ordinary oxygen. It exists in both the lower troposphere and upper stratosphere of Earth's atmosphere, where in the troposphere it acts as an air pollutant at ground level, and in the stratosphere the ozone layer protects life on Earth by absorbing harmful UV radiation before it reaches the surface.

Ozone (O3) is a highly-
reactive from of oxygen.
Unlike oxygen (O2), ozone has a strong scent and is blue in color. Ozone exists within both the tropospheric and stratospheric zones of the Earth’s atmosphere In the troposphere, ground level ozone is a major air pollutant and In the stratosphere, the ozone layer is an essential protector of life on earth as it absorbs harmful UV radiation before it reaches the earth.
