Chloro Fluro Carbons deplete the ozone in the following chemical system.
CCl3F (Trichlorofluromethane, a common CFC)
UV radiation breaks the bond between one of the Chlorine atoms and the carbon
CCl3F + UV -> (CCl2F) + Cl
The Chloride ions in the Stratosphere cataylse the reaction between Oxygen and ozone.
Cl + O3 -> O2 + ClO
ClO + O -> O2 + Cl
The Chloride Ions will eventually be converted naturally into a chloride atom but It will aid in breaking down of hundereds of Ozone molecules before that happens.
Bromine (Br), Chlorine(Cl), Chlorine Monoxide (ClO), bromine Monoxide(BrO), Hydrogen Chloride (HCL), Hydrogen Bromide (HBr), Chlorine Nitrate (ClONO3), Bromine Nitrate (ClONO3)
Are all reactive Halon gases that will deplete ozone, such as the system above.
CFCs, ect are banned because they undergo chemical reactions that produce these reactive halon gases.

The breakdown of the ozone layer is promoted by the emission into the atmosphere of?
Chlorofluorocarbon (CFC) gases used in refrigeration
What is a good definition for ozone depletion?
it describes two distincts, but related observations
What is depletion of Ozone Layer?
See "What is the depletion of the ozone layer?" in the "Related questions" section below.
How is your influences on the ozone layer different than natural destruction of the ozone atom?
The man made chemicals, CFCs or chlorofluorocarbons are influence on the Ozone layer. CFCs are use in aerosol propellants, refrigerants, foams, and industrial processes.
How is ozone layer linked to globar warning?
It should be global warming. Both processes are interrelated.
Causes of ozone layer?
Ozone layer is caused by natural processes. It is formed by UV.
How does ozone layer created?
Ozone layer is created by natural processes. UV and thunder are some of them.
How is the ozone layer related to chemistry?
The production and decay of ozone are chemical processes.
Did Aliens blow the Hole into Ozone-Layer?
No, the aliens did not blow hole in ozone layer. It is by man made processes.
Describe the thinning of the ozone layer?
The thinning of ozone layer is the depletion of ozone molecules. It is caused by various man made and natural processes.
What is hole in the ozone layer?
The hole in the ozone layer is the falling of the concentration of the ozone layer below a certain concentration. It is caused by various man made and natural processes.
How are the ozone layer holes caused?
Ozone holes are the thinning of ozone molecules. This is caused by man made or natural processes.
The breakdown of the ozone layer is promoted by the emission into the atmosphere of?
Chlorofluorocarbon (CFC) gases used in refrigeration
What is a good definition for ozone depletion?
it describes two distincts, but related observations
What are causes of the hole in the ozone layer?
Ozone hole is created by natural and man made processes. Man made are CFC's.
Does a whole in the ozone layer caused by natural processes?
No it is not. It is caused by man made CFC's.
What is depletion of Ozone Layer?
