the cfc's effect the ozone layer by breaking the bond of the atoms in the ozone layer.so it pulls apart the atoms and breaks the bond and the harmful radiation comes through and hits the earth

∙ 13y agoCFC's are very reactive with the highly unstable ozone gas. The gas, if it can reach the ozone layer, would be capable of reacting with the ozone gas.

∙ 9y agoCFC's do affect the ozone layer. CFC's form Chlorine and Fluorine. These react with ozone molecules and decompose it to form oxides.

What causes the most damage of the ozone layer?
The chlorine from CFCs do most damage to the ozone layer.
How you can protect ozone damage?
In order to protect the ozone layer, we must curb the use of CFCs. IF theses CFcs are not used, the ozone layer will replenish itself.
Do CFCs strengthen the ozone layer?
No, the chlorine and other chemicals in CFCs (chlorofluorocarbons) destroy the ozone molecules and weaken the ozone layer.
How does hairspray destroy the ozone layer?
Not any more. The CFCs that were used as aerosols in the 1980s are responsible for the depletion of the ozone layer. These have been phased out and scientists hope the ozone layer will have recovered by about 2060.It emits gases that damage the ozone layer.
What have humans done to damage the ozone layer?
The ozone layer is damaged over the poles. It is due to the low temperature.
What causes the most damage of the ozone layer?
The chlorine from CFCs do most damage to the ozone layer.
How you can protect ozone damage?
In order to protect the ozone layer, we must curb the use of CFCs. IF theses CFcs are not used, the ozone layer will replenish itself.
Are humans responsible for the depletion of the ozone layer?
Yes. People developed chemicals such as CFCs (Chlorofluorocarbons) for use in refrigerators and as a propellant gas in aerosols. These CFCs rose high into the atmosphere and caused damage to the ozone layer. the use of CFCs has since been banned and the ozone layer is slowly recovering. Hopefully.
Do CFCs strengthen the ozone layer?
No, the chlorine and other chemicals in CFCs (chlorofluorocarbons) destroy the ozone molecules and weaken the ozone layer.
How do chlorofluorocarbons damage ozone?
See "What is causing the depletion of the ozone layer?"
Is it possible to reduce the damage cfcs have on the ozone layer?
Yes, it is possible. We can do this by minimizing the use of CFC's.
How does hairspray destroy the ozone layer?
Not any more. The CFCs that were used as aerosols in the 1980s are responsible for the depletion of the ozone layer. These have been phased out and scientists hope the ozone layer will have recovered by about 2060.It emits gases that damage the ozone layer.
What does CFCs do to the ozne layer?
CFC's go in the ozone layer. They deplete the ozone.
What can destroy the ozone?
CFCs (chlorofluorocarbons) destroy ozone in the ozone layer.
What can each one of us do to save the ozone layer?
In order to save the ozone layer,we have to curb the use of CFCs. These CFcs are the ones that help in the destruction of ozone.
How can chloroflourocarbons destroy an ozone?
Yes, CFCs can destroy the ozone layer. They react with ozone present in ozone layer and decompose it.
Describe The destruction of The ozone layer by CFCs?
The CFC's are present in the ozone layer. They make oxides with ozone and deplete it.
