CFC's are the harmful compounds containing chlorine as Florine as the major components. These are released from deodorants, refrigerants and air conditioners.
When these CFC's reach the atmosphere or the stratosphere, the high energy ultraviolet rays fall on it and thus they break into their substituents. The chlorine thus formed reacts with the ozone molecule to form a very unstable compound ClO which further reacts with an ozone molecule to release chlorine back and 2 moles of ozone are destroyed.
Similarly in this way one molecule of chlorine can destroy over 1,00,000 molecules of ozone.!
See "What is causing the depletion of the ozone layer?" in the related questions section below.
CFCs start a chain reaction inside the ozone layer. This chain reaction causes the ozone molecules to deplete.
CFc's or chlorofluorocarbons are the compounds that are used in various items and destroy ozone. They react with ozone present in the ozone and decompose it to contribute in ozone depletion.
CFC's are chlorofluorocarbons. These are the substances which contain chlorine and fluorine, which react with the ozone in the ozone layer and deplete it.
Ozone layer can be affected by CFC's. They react with ozone to form their oxides and then deplete it.
Aerosols deplete the ozone by reacting with it. Ban on CFC's have been implemented.
Some gaseous products of human activity can reduce the about of ozone in the upper atmosphere, thus decreasing the effectiveness of the ozone layer in shielding the surface of the planet from ultraviolet radiation.
Aerosol spray cans contain CFC's. There are hard ODS.
Ozone layer is a pool of ozone gas. It is being depleted by CFC's.
Ozone layer is depleting due to the use of CFCs by humans. These CFC react with ozone and deplete it.
We have affected ozone layer by CFC's. These are man made chemicals that destroy ozone.
Aerosols have affected the ozone layer. They have done this as they contain CFC's.
CFC's deplete the ozone layer. They react with ozone to decompose it.
Ozone layer is depleted by the pollutants. CFC's are such man made pollutants which destroy the ozone.
CFC's are affecting the ozone layer. They react with the layer to deplete it.
Aerosols deplete the ozone by reacting with it. Ban on CFC's have been implemented.
In order to protect the ozone layer, we have to minimize the use of CFC's. These CFC's react with ozone in the ozone layer and deplete it.
No CFC's cannot create the ozone and ozone layer. They can only destroy ozone molecules in the atmosphere.
They contain CFC's. CFC's deplete the ozone layer.
Some gaseous products of human activity can reduce the about of ozone in the upper atmosphere, thus decreasing the effectiveness of the ozone layer in shielding the surface of the planet from ultraviolet radiation.
Ozone layer is affected by : 1. Human activities 2. Release of CFC gases.
The chemicals that destroy the ozone layer are CFC's. These CFC's are cholorofluorocarbons which react with ozone to destroy it.
