  2. Ozone - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ozone

    According to the American Lung Association, the Denver–Aurora area is the 14th most ozone-polluted area in the U.S. [65] The problem of high ozone levels is not new to this area. In 2004, the EPA allotted the Denver Metro /North Front Range [ b ] as non-attainment areas per 1997's 8-hour ozone standard, [ 66 ] but later deferred this status ...

  3. Triatomic molecule - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Triatomic_molecule

    Homonuclear triatomic molecules contain three of the same kind of atom. That molecule will be an allotrope of that element. Ozone, O 3 is an example of a triatomic molecule with all atoms the same. Triatomic hydrogen, H 3, is unstable and breaks up spontaneously. H 3 +, the trihydrogen cation is stable by itself and is symmetric.

  4. Ground-level ozone - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ground-level_ozone

    LIDAR is a common ground-based remote sensing technique that uses laser to measure ozone. The Tropospheric Ozone Lidar Network (TOLNet) is the network of ozone observing lidars across the United States. [18] Ozonesondes are a form of in situ, or local ozone measuring instruments. An ozonesonde is attached to a meteorological balloon, so that ...

  5. Ozone and biology - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ozone_and_biology

    Attempts have been made to separate out the empirical based ozone therapies from therapies based on a more scientific based understanding of how ozone therapy might work. [23] Despite such attempts there is no indication in the current literature that the controversy will lessen soon as there is a gap in the literature of long-term studies as ...

    All 11 are necessary for life. The remaining elements are trace elements, of which more than a dozen are thought on the basis of good evidence to be necessary for life. [1] All of the mass of the trace elements put together (less than 10 grams for a human body) do not add up to the body mass of magnesium, the least common of the 11 non-trace ...

  7. Water - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Water

    In almost all thermal power stations, water is used as the working fluid (used in a closed-loop between boiler, steam turbine, and condenser), and the coolant (used to exchange the waste heat to a water body or carry it away by evaporation in a cooling tower). In the United States, cooling power plants is the largest use of water. [152]

  8. Properties of water - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Properties_of_water

    Water molecules stay close to each other , due to the collective action of hydrogen bonds between water molecules. These hydrogen bonds are constantly breaking, with new bonds being formed with different water molecules; but at any given time in a sample of liquid water, a large portion of the molecules are held together by such bonds. [61]

  9. Molecular geometry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Molecular_geometry

    To put this in perspective: the lowest excitation vibrational energy in water is the bending mode (about 1600 cm −1). Thus, at room temperature less than 0.07 percent of all the molecules of a given amount of water will vibrate faster than at absolute zero. As stated above, rotation hardly influences the molecular geometry.
