The following reaction represents the removal of ozone in the stratosphere:

Calculate the equilibrium constant (Kp) for this reaction. In view of the magnitude of the equilibrium constant, explain why this reaction is not considered a major cause of ozone depletion in the absence of human-made pollutants such as the nitrogen oxides and CFCs. Assume the temperature of the stratosphere is ‒30°C and is temperature independent.
