In general, no. If a molecule has a double carbon=carbon bond, ozone will attack it. Otherwise, ozone will have no effect on such molecules. High energy sunlight however, such as found near the ozone layer, can split chlorine off CFCs.

∙ 11y agoYes, chlorofluorocarbons are the main reason that ozone is depleted. CFC is broken down by the sunlight. Then it goes and breaks down the ozone molecules which become some form of oxygen. Then the CFC is recycled and it does it all again. thus large holes in the ozone layer are created.

What molecules destroy the ozone besides CFC's?
The molecules of greenhouse gases destroy ozone. Carbon dioxide is an example.
What is the term for gas is produced by aerosols and manufacturing that destroy the earths ozone layer?
The chemical compound used in aerosols that are thought to be harmful to the Ozone are known as Chlorofluorocarbon or "CFCs" for short.

The chemical compound used in aerosols that are thought to be harmful to the Ozone are known as Chlorofluorocarbon or "CFCs" for short.
Do CFCs strengthen the ozone layer?
No, the chlorine and other chemicals in CFCs (chlorofluorocarbons) destroy the ozone molecules and weaken the ozone layer.
What is the enemy of the ozone layer and where is this enemy found?
I think chlorofluorocarbon is the enemy of ozone layer.
Do ozone molecules destroy chlorofluorocarbon molecules?
yes!of course you idiots
How do chlorofluorocarbon destroy ozone molecules?
CFC's reach atmosphere by westerly's. They deplete ozone in presence of PSC's.
How do you destroy chlorofluorocarbon?
We can destroy CFC's by not creating them at all. They deplete ozone.
What does chlorofluorocarbon?
Chlorofluorocarbons destroy ozone. It is vital for earth.
Which molecules are thought to damage the ozone layer?
CFC molecules damage ozone. They react with ozone and destroy it.
What molecules destroy the ozone besides CFC's?
The molecules of greenhouse gases destroy ozone. Carbon dioxide is an example.
Can ultraviolet radiations decompose oxygen molecules resulting from chlorofluorocarbon compounds erosion of the ozone layer?
Yes they do. It is the process that happens during ozone depletion.
What do CFC's do to the ozone molecules?
the chlorine destroy's them
What do CFC's do the ozone molecules?
the chlorine destroy's them
Which molecules damages the ozone layer what is its size?
The molecules that destroy ozone at CFC's. Chlorine molecule are the ones.
