Which element in chlorofluorocarbons (cfcs) are responsible for destroying the earth's ozone layer?
Chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs) contain chlorine and bromine atoms, which are primarily responsible for the destruction of the Earth's ozone layer. When CFCs are released into the atmosphere, ultraviolet (UV) radiation breaks them down, releasing chlorine atoms. These chlorine atoms then catalyze the breakdown of ozone (O₃) molecules, leading to the depletion of the ozone layer that protects the Earth from harmful UV radiation.
