Question

Ozone is separated from oxygen by = _______.

Answer 1

Separation of ozone from oxygen:

• Ozone is separated from oxygen by adsorption on refrigerated silica gel, followed by desorption, either in pure form at reduced pressure, or diluted by air, nitrogen, argon, or other gas not strongly adsorbed on silica gel.
• This is a practical method, free from hazard when correctly performed.
