Ozone molecules are destroyed everyday by CFC's. This number depends upon the current season.
There are three molecules in ozone. It can be man made from oxygen, with a high voltage electrical discharge, that splits the oxygen from two molecules into three which gives you ozone.
There are around 19.4*1023 molecules in 155.25 g of ozone. Its molecular weight is 48.
CFC molecules are fatal for ozone. large amount of CFC molecules are produced in 2 hours.
Natural way of destroying ozone are many. Volcanic eruptions, carbon dioxide etc are some.
It's funny because I just read in my textbook, which was printed this year 2012, that one chlorine atom can destroy "ONE Million" ozone molecules. They do not explain why. It is more then likely goofball science that no one can back up. I'm no chem expert, but... Cl + O3 YIELDS destruction of (thousands/millions) O3 molecules. Yeah right.
Ozone is very rare in our atmosphere, averaging about three molecules of ozone for every 10 million air molecules. In spite of this small amount, ozone plays a vital role in the atmosphere. In the information below, we present "the basics" about this important component of the Earth's atmosphere.SO COUNT THE NUMBER OF AIR MOLECULES IN THE ATMOSPHERE.....and MULTPLY WITH 3,U WILL GT THE ANSWER

A single household destroys many ozone. A single CFC even can destroy 100,000 molecules.
4.8/16 moles of oxygen atoms converts to 1.6/16 moles of ozone molecules.
A CFC molecule is very harmful. It can destroy 100,000 molecules of ozone.
Chlorofluorocarbons are the ones that deplete ozone. One CFC molecule can destroy 100,000 molecules of ozone.
Ozone has three oxygen atoms. Ozone has two forms: O-O=O and O=O-O, and it oscillates between these forms.
There are 3 atoms in a ozone molecule. It is because of the chemical for the molecules i.e. O3.
CFC molecules are fatal for ozone. large amount of CFC molecules are produced in 2 hours.

Freon is a brand name, and covers many compounds / molecules that have fluorine bonded into them. Fluorine itself is more powerful than ozone, so the fluorine provides no challenge to ozone in terms of accelerating its decay, or blocking its production. There are several of these molecules that also contain chlorine or bromine, and they *do* provide an accelerated decay path for ozone. These molecules are referred to as CFCs in general. Additionally, some of these molecules contain hydrogen, and this also provides a challenge to ozone. These molecules are referred to as HCFCs, and tend to break up before they make it all the way up to the ozone layer (a trip of many months). So... just being "freon" does not make it a danger to the ozone layer, nor does it prevent it from being a danger to the ozone layer. It depends on the formulation.
