    ozone
    [ noun ]

    <noun.substance>


    ozone \o"zone\ ([=o]"z[=o]n or [-o]*z[=o]n"), n. [Gr. 'o`zwn
    smelling, p. pr. of 'o`zein to smell. See {Odor}.] (Chem.)
    A colorless gaseous substance ({O3}) obtained (as by the
    silent discharge of electricity in oxygen) as an allotropic
    form of oxygen, containing three atoms in the molecule. It is
    a strong oxidizer, and probably exists in the air, though by
    the ordinary tests it is liable to be confused with certain
    other substances, as hydrogen dioxide, or certain oxides of
    nitrogen. It derives its name from its peculiar odor, which
    resembles that of weak chlorine.
