Chlorofluorocarbon (CFC) is an organic compound that contains carbon, chlorine, and fluorine, produced as a volatile derivative of methane and ethane.
They were commonly used as refrigerants, and for propellants for aerosol sprays, though they have been mostly phased out due to the fact that they cause ozone depletion.
What else can I help you with?
What do Halons and CFC s do to the ozone A inhibit ozone formation B cause ozone formation in the troposphere C destroy ozone in the stratosphere D cause excess ozone formation in the stratosphere?
Halons and CFC s both destroy ozone in the stratosphere.
What 2 places is ozone found?
The ozone is found in atmosphere. It is also found in troposphere.
What compound was found to be destroying the ozone layer?
CFC's (chlorofluorocarbon's)
What gases are found in the atmosphere what gases are found in the troposphere?
About 90% of the atmospheric mass is in the troposphere. You can tell because 90% of the pressure increase occurs in the troposphere. Pressure goes from zero in space to 100 mb at the tropopause to 1000 mb at the surface.
Where is the ozone to be found?
Ozone is found in the earth's atmosphere. It is present both in the stratosphere as well as troposphere.
What are the objects found on troposphere?
Troposphere is the layer closest to earth. All the cloud formation happens in troposphere only.
What layers are ozone found?
The layers ozone is found is troposphere and stratosphere. The stratosphere is the second layer next to troposphere.
Is the ozone found in the troposphere bad for us?
The ozone found in the troposphere is a pollunt. It also acts as a greenhouse gas.
What kinds of meteorological phenomena can be can be found in the troposphere?
you can find storm clouds in the troposphere
Where is water vapour found?
on the troposphere
Bad ozone is found in the troposphere and contributes to what?
Bad ozone is found in the troposphere. It might lead to irritation in skin and rashes to humans.
What do Halons and CFC s do to the ozone A inhibit ozone formation B cause ozone formation in the troposphere C destroy ozone in the stratosphere D cause excess ozone formation in the stratosphere?
Halons and CFC s both destroy ozone in the stratosphere.
What 2 places is ozone found?
The ozone is found in atmosphere. It is also found in troposphere.
Is the element oxygen found in the troposphere?
Yes, oxygen is found in the troposphere. It is one of the main components of the Earth's atmosphere, making up about 21% of the air we breathe.
What compound was found to be destroying the ozone layer?
CFC's (chlorofluorocarbon's)
Which gas is used now a days instead of CFC?
LPG - Liquid propane gas or other Hydrocarbon derivatives... Soft CFC's, they added hydrogen to the CFC's previously used that were called hard CFC's. By doing this it won't allow the CFC's to travel up to the stratosphere, where it breaks down the ozone. With the added hydrogen will stop it in the troposphere and combine to form compounds such as CO2 + HCl (or HF), therefore not harmful to the ozone. Examples CH2Cl (HCFC-22) or CHCl2-CF2 (HCFC-123)
What are gasses only found in the troposphere?
oxygen and nitrogen
