    Solution :

                    Ozone can be tested by Hg (mercury). \[2Hg+{{O}_{3}}\xrightarrow{{}}\underset{\begin{smallmatrix}  mercurous \\  oxide \end{smallmatrix}}{\mathop{H{{g}_{2}}O}}\,+{{O}_{2}}\] During this reaction mercury loses its meniscus and starts sticking to the side of the glass. This is known as tailing of mercury.
