Gas blamed for the ozone problem is what?
Ozone layer: water vapor, chlorofluorocarbons, stuff like that.Tropospheric ozone: NOx, VOC
Do chlorofluorocarbons have a negative effect on the ozone layer?
Yes, chlorofluorocarbons have an adverse effect on the ozone layer. These react with ozone and decompose it to deplete the ozone layer.
What is the effect of ozone layer on stratosphere?
Ozone layer is present in stratosphere. It does not cause it any effect.
What exactly do cars do to our ozone?
Cars run on fuel. Fuel is "VOC". Cars emit VOC and oxides of nitrogen (NOx). Sunlight (purple to UV or more energetic) makes ozone from NOx and VOC. Combustion processes (cars and fossil fueled power plants) release water vapor and heat, and consume oxygen. Water vapor destroys ozone. Heat increases ozone's decay rate. Reduced levels of oxygen slow the ability to produce ozone. Cars tend to make ozone where we breathe, and have a fairly mild negative / depressive effect on "the ozone layer".
How much damage do cow emulsions do to the ozone?
Runny beef stew has no effect on the ozone layer. Methane from cows has no effect on the ozone layer.
Does ozone layer has cooling effect?
Ozone does have a cooling effect. It is because of its properties.
Does the ozone layer contribute to the formation of smog?
No. The ozone layer has no effect on the formation of smog.
How does the carbon cycle affect the ozone layer?
Carbon cycle has an effect on ozone layer. Carbon emissions cause greenhouse effect which causes ozone depletion.
What is the effect the ozone layer in each place?
The effect of ozone layer is same overall. The ozone depletion over one place will affect the UV in that area.
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 is the most layer that effect on earth surface?
The layer that affects the earth's surface is ozone. Ozone is a layer of importance.
What is the effect of CFC to the ozone layer?
CFCs release chlorine and fluorine move to the ozone layer. There these elements react with ozone to form compounds and the ozone layer is depleted.
