**Question:**
The global average ozone is approximately 300 DU. At 1 atm and 0°C, this is equivalent to __ mm thick.
**Answer:**
[Input Box]
**Explanation of Measurements:**
1. **Dobson Unit (DU)**: A common unit for measuring the ozone level in the atmosphere.
2. **300 DU Context**: 300 Dobson Units can be used to estimate the thickness of the ozone layer when compressed to standard atmospheric pressure and temperature, showing a practical understanding of ozone density.
**Fill in the Blank:**
Please enter the thickness in millimeters based on the provided conditions.
