Explain the effects of cfc's on the ozone layer?
It breaks down ozone and have made parts of the ozone layer to weaken .
Will you die when the ozone layer breaks?
Yes, you will. There is a lot of time until the ozone breaks up.
Describe the ozone layer and explain why it is important for your health?
Ozone layer is a layer of ozone molecules. It is important for health as is protects us from UV.
Does the ozone layer trap carbon dioxide in the atmosphere?
It doesn't. The ozone layer has *nothing at all* to do with trapping CO2. Above the level of the ozone layer, intense radiation breaks CO2 down, so you get fooled into thinking the ozone layer had something to do with "trapping".
How long will it take until the Ozone layer breaks down if people don't do anything about it?
See "When will the ozone layer be gone?"
Where do you find the ozone layer and explain the benefit of this ozone layer?
It is found in the stratosphere. They protect us from the UV rays of the sun.
What breaks the ozone?
Ozone depletion is the process where ozone holes are created in the ozone layer. It is caused due to the action of chloro-floro-carbons on the ozone molecule to break it down to oxygen.
Does the increased use of methyl bromide correlate with the decrease of the ozone layer thickness over Antarctica explain?
Methyl bromide reaches the ozone layer. Bromine is the element that destroys ozone.
What is the connection between sunlight and ozone formation?
"Ozone Layer": UV-C from the Sun breaks apart oxygen, and some of that oxygen makes ozone. "Ozone as smog": Violet or more energetic light from the sun activates NOx, which in turn causes VOC and oxygen to make tropospheric ozone.
What happens when the spaceship break through the ozone layer?
A spaceshit passing does not break ozone. It replenishes automatically unless altered chemically.
Why is ozone concentrated only in one part of the atmosphere?
Ozone is found where it is made. When it diffuses higher, the intense radiation that is blocked by the ozone layer, breaks the ozone down. When it diffuses lower, the water vapor there breaks the ozone down. And ozone is unstable, and breaks down in time, so it cannot get very far since it takes months to travel very far "up" or "down".
How do you make cardboard models to explain the causes of hole in the ozone layer?
A cardboard model in the form of cylinder can be made. The top circle being the ozone layer and the bottom being the land. You can show all phenomenon in the middle.
