Is loss of atmospheric ozone a chemical change?

Yes, the loss of atmospheric ozone is considered a chemical change. It involves the breakdown of ozone (O₃) molecules into oxygen (O₂) due to reactions with pollutants like chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs). This transformation alters the chemical composition of the atmosphere, impacting its ability to absorb harmful ultraviolet radiation. Thus, the process fundamentally changes the substances involved, characteristic of a chemical change.

What manmade substances breakdown ozone?

Chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs), halons, and some types of hydrochlorofluorocarbons (HCFCs) are manmade substances that can break down ozone in the Earth's stratosphere. These chemicals release chlorine and bromine atoms when they reach the stratosphere, which then catalyze the breakdown of ozone molecules.
