they really affect the stratosphere because as they get there the ultraviolet rays decompose them to release chlorine the real ozone killer~chlorine forms an unstable compound with ozone which later reduces it to oxygen destroying the ozone layer quickly because chorine can be active of a century.

What are the atmosphere 4 layers?
Troposphere, stratosphere, mesosphere, and thermosphere.
What is the difference between the Stratosphere Thermosphere and the Trophoshere?
Stratosphere is the layer above troposphere. Troposphere is the first layer and is below the stratosphere.
Why does the stratosphere end at 9 miles?
The Stratosphere does not end at 9 miles in the first place. The Stratosphere STARTS at 17 km so if you do the math, you will know that the Stratosphere does not end at 9 miles.Secondly, the Stratosphere ends at 17 km because that's where the Mesosphere starts.
What damages the atmosphere?
An example of something that damages the atmosphere is chlorofluorocarbons.
When the sulfur in the atmosphere combines with water vapor?
chlorofluorocarbons i think
How long does it take for chlorofluorocarbons to reach the stratosphere?
Chlorofluorocarbons, also called CFC, go into the stratosphere. Air is lighter than the CFC and they can take about 2 to 5 years to travel in the stratosphere.
Do Chlorofluorocarbons destroy the stratosphere?
Yes, CFC's destroy the ozone in the stratosphere. They react with ozone to destroy it.
Does chlorofluorocarbons destroy stratosphere?
Yes, do destroy it. They destroy the ozone within.
How long will it take for chlorofluorocarbons released from Earth's surface today to reach the stratosphere?
Hours or days. Updrafts carry the gases into the stratosphere on a regular basis.
Which chlorofluorocarbons destroy ozone moleucules in the stratosphere?
CFC's contain Chlorine and Fluorine. They react with ozone and deplete it.
Chlorofluorocarbons rise to the stratosphere and?
Cfc's rise to the stratosphere and react with ozone. These CFC's release chlorine which reacts with ozone to deplete it and form oxygen molecule and nascent oxygen.
What layer of the atmosphere is most affected by fluorocarbons?
The ozone layer, which is part of the stratosphere, is the most affected by fluorocarbons. When chlorofluorocarbons or CFCs are released into the atmosphere, they migrate from the troposphere to the stratosphere after about 3 to 5 years. These CFCs destroy the ozone layer.
What are man made gases which affect ozone?
Chlorofluorocarbons as always are the reply. These are the gases with most ozone depletion potential. The potential is too high to be imagined.CFCs (chlorofluorocarbons).
How do you chlorofluorocarbons affect the ozone layer?
CFC's affect the ozone layer in many ways. These CFC's are prone to ozone destruction.
What does light do to oxygen in the stratosphere?
Light in the form of visible rays does not affect ozone in stratosphere. UV rays deplete it.
How does ozone in the stratosphere affect life on the Earth's surface?
The ozone in stratosphere affects the life on earth. It protects and shields the surface of earth.
How can chlorofluorocarbon affect your ozone layer?
Chlorofluorocarbons or CFC's are a vast effect on ozone layer. They chemically react with them to deplete them.
