What does OZONE mean in Scrabble?
noun
chemistry
A form of oxygen with three atoms in each molecule, found naturally in the upper atmosphere and also produced by electrical discharge or strong sunlight.
Ozone is a gas made of three oxygen atoms joined together instead of the usual two, giving it a sharp, distinctive smell and strong chemical reactivity compared with ordinary oxygen. High in the atmosphere it forms a protective layer that absorbs much of the sun's ultraviolet light, while near the ground it can form as a pollutant from sunlight acting on exhaust fumes. In everyday speech people also use ozone loosely to mean the fresh, invigorating smell of sea air, even though that smell is not actually caused by the gas.
How OZONE is used
Used both as a precise scientific term for the gas O3 and, more loosely, for the fresh smell associated with the seaside.
- Sunlight and pollution combine to form ground-level ozone in cities.
- The stratosphere's ozone layer blocks much of the sun's ultraviolet light.
- She breathed in deeply, calling the sea air pure ozone.
- Instruments on the coast measure ozone levels throughout the day.
- A sharp smell of ozone followed the lightning strike.
