When Exposed to UV Light, Oxygen Gas Produces Ozone Gas

Question

When exposed to UV light, oxygen gas produces ozone gas.

Accepted Answer

This is true. Oxygen gas (O2) can be converted into ozone gas (O3) when it comes into contact with ultraviolet (UV) light. This typically occurs in the Earth's stratosphere, where UV radiation from the sun interacts with oxygen molecules to create ozone.
