What is ozone? <strong>Ozone</strong> is a stable molecule composed of three oxygen atoms. O While stable, it is highly reactive. The Greek word ozein means “to smell” and O 3 has a strong pungent odor. Electric discharges in air often produce significant quantities of O 3 and you may have smelled O 3 near these sources. O O
