its just a Alkane with a halogen in the place of one or more hydrogens.

Halocarbon is a broad term that includes compounds containing carbon and halogen atoms (like fluorine, chlorine, or bromine). Fluorocarbon specifically refers to halocarbons that contain fluorine atoms. Therefore, all fluorocarbons are halocarbons, but not all halocarbons are fluorocarbons. In the context of refrigerants, both halocarbons and fluorocarbons are used, with specific types like CFCs, HCFCs, and HFCs falling under these categories.
Halocarbons contain carbon, hydrogen, and halogen atoms such as fluorine, chlorine, bromine, or iodine.
Perfluorohexane is a type of halocarbon that has one of the highest boiling points among halocarbons, around 56.3 degrees Celsius.
Formula: C5H10
The chemical formula for hypochlorite is ClO-. It is the conjugate base of hypochlorous acid (HClO).
There are many, many different halocarbons, and the specific gravity of each is unique. It is beyond the scope of WikiAnswers to list them all here. The best suggestion is to be specific and trust that you'll get a specific answer.
Halocarbons are synthetic chemicals that contribute to ozone depletion and also have a greenhouse effect, trapping heat in the atmosphere and contributing to climate change. They are potent greenhouse gases that can have a significant impact on global warming potential. Regulations have been put in place to phase out the use of certain halocarbons to mitigate their impact on both ozone depletion and climate change.

These halocarbons are called alkyl halides or haloalkanes. They consist of an aliphatic carbon chain bonded to one or more halogen atoms, such as chlorine, bromine, or iodine. Chloroethane (CH3CH2Cl) is a common example of an alkyl halide, where the chlorine atom is attached to the ethyl group.

Halocarbons are a class of organic compounds containing covalently bonded fluorine, chlorine, bromine or iodine. Naming halocarbons is based on the name of the parent hydrocarbon chain and the halocarbons are simply named as substituents. For example, (using skeleton chains - absence of other hydrogen atoms (a) C-C-C-C-F is fluorobutane (as the fluorine is attached to carbon #1 of the butane chain; F I (b) C-C-C-C-C-F is 1,3,4-trifluoropentane I F (keeping the numbers as low as possible and identifying all carbons that the substituents are attached to). hope this helps

Water vapor is by far the most abundant, but also the weakest. Carbon dioxide is the next most abundant, but also relatively weak. Methane is quite potent, and after that are halocarbons among others, which are extremely potent but not at all abundant.
NASA has an answer on its website that the Space Shuttle's annual launches emits a quarter of one percent of the annual industrial emissions of halocarbons. See the link below.
Fluoride compounds do not directly contribute to ozone depletion. Ozone depletion is primarily caused by chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs) and other halocarbons, not fluoride. Fluorides can, however, be harmful to the environment in other ways, such as impacting aquatic ecosystems if released in high concentrations.
