Which of the following is true about ozone?
#A)# The molecule exists with localized bonds, namely one double bond and one single bond.
#B)# The formal charge on the outermost oxygen atoms are #0# and #-1# , respectively.
#C)# The molecule oscillates rapidly between two localized resonance structures.
#D)# Both #"O"-"O"# bonds are equivalent, #1.5# -bonds.
If I chose only one answer, I would choose
Basically, the actual structure of
The most correct answer here thus treats both bonds as equivalent, since both resonance structures exist at the same time, but the electrons in the
The electrons in the structure are actually spread throughout the structure, so that both bonds are the same length: the length in between that of a double and a single bond, or a bond order of
To be specific, accepting
But if I chose only one answer, it would be

Three oxygen atoms make up the molecule known as ozone, which is essential to the Earth's atmosphere because it absorbs and blocks a large amount of UV radiation from the sun.

When evaluating a one-sided limit, you need to be careful when a quantity is approaching zero since its sign is different depending on which way it is approaching zero from. Let us look at some examples.
