Chapter 17, Problem 17G.2P

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

Ultraviolet radiation photolysis ${\text{O}}_{\text{3}}$ to ${\text{O}}_{\text{2}}\text{and}\text{O}$.  The rate at which ozone is consumed by $\text{305}\text{nm}$ radiation in a later of the stratosphere of thickness $\text{1}\text{.0}\text{km}$.  The quantum yield is $\text{0}\text{.94}$ at $\text{220}\text{K}$, the concentration about $\text{8}\text{n}\text{mol}{\text{dm}}^{\text{-3}}$, the molar absorption coefficient $\text{260}{\text{dm}}^{\text{3}}{\text{mol}}^{\text{-1}}{\text{cm}}^{\text{-1}}$ and the flux of $\text{305}\text{nm}$ radiation about ${\text{1×10}}^{\text{14}}\text{photons}{\text{cm}}^{\text{-2}}{\text{s}}^{\text{-1}}$ has to be determined.
