The abundance of ozone is typically inferred from measurements of UV absorption and is often expressed in terms of Dobson units: 1 DU is equivalent to a layer ofpure ozone 103 cm thick at 1 atm and 0°C. Given a molar absorption coefficient of 476 dm³ mol 1 cm 1, compute the absorbance of UV radiation for the ozonevalues shown below.(a) 320. DU (a typical value)mol-14.015.2x(b) 150. DU (a value reached during seasonal Antarctic ozone depletions)
