Ozone Formation Kristen Keenan Erzsebet Pocsi

“BAD” Ozone Reaction with N0x (nitrogen oxides): Reaction with N0x (nitrogen oxides):  N02 + O2  O3 + NO this reaction requires sunlight Reaction with VOCs (volatile organic carbons): Reaction with VOCs (volatile organic carbons):  VOCs + NO  NO then  N02 + O2  O3 + NOthis reaction requires sunlight

Health Effects Shortness of breath Shortness of breath Dry cough Dry cough Pain when taking a deep breath Pain when taking a deep breath Tightness of chest Tightness of chest Wheezing Wheezing Nausea Nausea Trigger asthma Trigger asthma Aggravate respiratory illnesses Aggravate respiratory illnesses
