What harm in the ozone doing in the atmosphere?
The ozone is harmed by CFC's. They react with ozone to deplete it.
The primary chemical in the atmosphere that appears to be depleting the ozone layer is?
CFC's destroy ozone. They react with ozone to deplete it.
Where in the atmosphere is ozone broken down by cfc's?
It is broken in the stratosphere. CFC's react with ozone to deplete it.
What gas is responsible for the depeletion of ozone layer in the upper atmosphere?
CFC's are responsible for ozone depletion. They react with ozone to deplete it.
How are chlorofluorocarbons related to the depletion of ozone in the atmosphere?
CFC's are the major cause of ozone depletion. They react with ozone molecule to decompose it.
Will chlorine atoms react with ozone to produce chlorine monoxide?
Yes, chlorine atoms can react with ozone to produce chlorine monoxide. This reaction can contribute to ozone depletion in the atmosphere.
What is responsible for the depeletion of ozone layer in the upper atmosphere?
Man made CFC's are responsible. They react with ozone to deplete it.
Which chemical readily vaporize and react in the atmosphere to form ozone?
CFC's are the chemicals. They readily vaporize and deplete the ozone.
What happens to CFCs in the upper atmosphere that allow them to react with ozone?
When the CFCs go up to the stratosphere the react with strong UV light. This breaks the C-Cl bonds of the compound so therefore the Cl get removed from the reaction. This is a danger to the ozone molecules in our atmosphere because the Cl molecules react with the hydrogen molecules in the ozone compound this destroys the ozone compound and releases more oxygen molecules in to the upper atmosphere.
How do chlorofluorocarbons damage ozone?
See "What is causing the depletion of the ozone layer?"
Which one of the chemicals is responsible for the reduction of ozone layer in the atmosphere?
Chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs) are primarily responsible for the reduction of the ozone layer in the atmosphere. When CFCs are released into the atmosphere, they can break down ozone molecules, leading to the thinning of the ozone layer.
What are gases that breakdown the ozone layer and that come from spray cans and aerosol called?
Chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs) are gases used in spray cans and aerosols that can break down the ozone layer. When released into the atmosphere, they can react with ozone molecules and contribute to ozone depletion.
