  16. I think the non-chemists may need it pointed out that molecular oxygen
  17. O2 and ozone O3 are always being converted back and forth.  How much
  18. ozone there is relative to molecular oxygen depends on the rates of
  19. these processes, and these are affected by substances present in small
  20. quantities.
