Which outcome occurs when excess energy excites molecular vibration in ozone?

A)Accelerated dissociation into molecular oxygen
B)Increased stability against UV radiation
C)Formation of stronger molecular bonds
D)Reduced reactivity with atmospheric pollutants

💡 Explanation

Excitation above a threshold promotes vibrational energy transfer, inducing bond breakage because the *Franck-Condon principle* favors transitions to dissociative states. Therefore, dissociation occurs, rather than stabilization because that would demand specific quantum control of vibronic modes.
