What is the term for gases pro ducted by aerosols and manufacturing that destroy the earth's ozone layer?

The term for gases produced by aerosols and manufacturing that destroy the Earth's ozone layer is "ozone-depleting substances." Examples include chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs), hydrochlorofluorocarbons (HCFCs), and halons. These substances break down ozone molecules in the stratosphere, leading to the thinning of the ozone layer.


What percentage is ozone in the atmosphere?

In the ozone layer, ozone concentration is ~10 ppm. Ozone concentrations drop very fast from there. Figure 2ppm or less overall (0.0002%)


Will the ozone layer be destroied?

Ozone depletion is the process where ozone holes are created in the ozone layer. It is caused due to the action of chloro-floro-carbons on the ozone molecule to break it down to oxygen.The substances that are causing ozone layer depletion are freons, CFC's etc.. These are called as ozone-depleting substances (ODS).


In which part of the atmosphere is the ozone located?

It is mainly located in the lower portion of the stratosphere from approximately 10 km to 50 km above Earth. The Earth's atmosphere consists, from the ground up, of the troposphere (which includes the planetary boundary layer or peplosphere as lowest layer), stratosphere, mesosphere, thermosphere (which contains the ionosphere and exosphere) and also the magnetosphere.


What is the term for gases produced by aerosals and manufacturing that destroy the earths ozone layer?

The term is CFC. It is known as chlorofluorocarbons.

What is the meaning of ozonosphere?

The term "ozonosphere" is not commonly used in atmospheric science. It may be confused with the term "ozone layer," which refers to a region of the Earth's stratosphere that contains a high concentration of ozone gas. This ozone layer plays a crucial role in absorbing ultraviolet radiation from the sun, protecting life on Earth.
