Gasoline itself does not do so. Nitric oxide can be formed in gasoline engines, and it can act as a catalyst in the decomposition of ozone... however, it's fairly reactive and not likely to survive to reach the ozone layer (in fact, it reacts with hydrocarbons to produce ozone; unfortunately, it does so at lower levels where we don't want ozone).

∙ 10y agoYes, Ozone layer contains ozone. CFC gas converts ozone into oxygen. So it is bad for ozone layer.

∙ 11y agoyes, in fact, it does! At low latitudes, methane in the stratosphere breaks down into hydrogen which attacks ozone.Hope I helped ;)

What do you called it destroys the atmosphere that surrounds the earth?
Global warming destroys the layer surrounding the Earth. The layer is called the ozone layer. Also, greenhouse gases and CFCs(chloroflorocarbons) contribute to destroying the ozone layer.
What blank inside the stratosphere blocks ultraviolent radiation?
The ozone layer blocks ultraviolet radiation.
What layer of the atmosphere contains ozone that filters uv radiation?
The ozone layer.
What is a common name for troposphere ozone?
It only has one name in each language. In English, it is "ozone layer". Ozone is found in all layers of the atmosphere, and is at its highest concentrations in the lower stratosphere / upper troposphere, where it is called the "ozone layer". Still lots of nitrogen and oxygen there too, though.
How can you stop destroying the ozone layer?
The most prevalent Human created cause of an agent which destroys the ozone layer are CFC's, a type of chemical which used to be used in the pressurisation of aerosol cans. In many countries this compound has been phased out due to it's destructive nature. Or you could stop flying planes through it, that's good too.
What chemical reaction destroys the ozone layer?
CFC's react with ozone. They deplete the ozone layer.
What are chlorofluocarbons?
Destroys the ozone layer
What liquid refrigerant is banned because it destroys the ozone layer?
The liquid refrigerant that is banned is CFC. It destroys the ozone.
Does globle warming destroy ozone layer?
Yes global warming destroys ozone layer. They are interrelated.
What is the chemical that destroys the ozone layer in Antarctica?
CFC's destroy ozone. They react with ozone to deplete it.
What factors destroys your ozone layer?
greenhouse gas
What is the main gas that destroys the Ozone layer?
CFC's
What do you called it destroys the atmosphere that surrounds the earth?
Global warming destroys the layer surrounding the Earth. The layer is called the ozone layer. Also, greenhouse gases and CFCs(chloroflorocarbons) contribute to destroying the ozone layer.
What is the material that causes the destruction of the ozone layer?
The destruction of ozone layer is caused by chlorofluorocarbons. These compounds initiate a chain reaction in the ozone layer which destroys these molecules.
How chlorofluorocarbon affect ozone layer?
It turns ozone into oxygen gas, which destroys the ozone layer.
Is methane destroying the ozone layer?
Methane has no effect on the ozone layer. Ozone cannot get to the carbon atom, so they coexist happily. However, oxygen in the stratosphere does experience a chemical reaction with methane. Emissions of methane are transformed into water, according to the formula CH4 + 2O2 --> CO2 + 2(H2O). Ozone is O3, so it is unaffected.
What can be caused when the ozone layer destroy?
When the ozone destroys, mankind will be lost. No life would be there.
