Oxidation Of Silver As A Method Of Measuring Ozone Concentration, Lorne Maxwell Chanin
Physics & Astronomy ETDs
It has been found that, under certain conditions, a chemical reaction occurs between silver and ozone. The products of this reaction are silver oxides and oxygen. When heated to a certain temperature, the silver oxides are decomposed into silver and oxygen. If this reaction were produced, then the amount of oxygen resulting from the decomposition would be a measure of the amount of ozone originally present.
