How is ozone prepared from oxygen ? Explain its reaction with PbS.

Answer» Preparation of Ozone :
A slow dry stream of oxygen under silent electric discharge to form ozone (about `10%`) The product obtained is known as ozonised oxygen.
`3O_(2)to2O_(3) DeltaH^(@)=142"kJ"//"mole"`
`to` The formation of ozone is an endothermic reaction.
`to` It is necessary to use silent electric discharge in the preparation of `O_(3)` to prevent its de composition
Reaction with PbS : Black lead sulphide oxidised to white lead sulphate in presence of ozone.
`PbS+4O_(3)toPbSO_(4)+4O_(2)`.
