Why did the ozone layer break?

Ozone layer break because of CFC's. they react with ozone and break it.


What are gases that breakdown the ozone layer and that come from spray cans and aerosol called?

Chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs) are gases used in spray cans and aerosols that can break down the ozone layer. When released into the atmosphere, they can react with ozone molecules and contribute to ozone depletion.


Where can the gases be found that destroy the ozone layer?

The gases that destroy ozone are CFC's. They react with ozone to deplete it.


What gs depletes ozone layer?

The ozone layer is depleted by man made CFC gases. They react with ozone.


Gases in atmosphere causes break in ozone layer?

There is no actual break in the ozone layer. The "hole" is an annual event above the poles caused by the lack of sun reaching the ozone layer. CFC's are believed by some to cause a contributing change in this layer. The lagest "hole" recorded occurred decades before CFC's were created. The primary cause for ozone is lack of sun, not any gas.


What is the hole in the Ozone Layer?

The hole in the Ozone Layer is a region of the atmosphere where the concentration of ozone is significantly depleted. It is primarily located over Antarctica. This depletion is caused by the release of chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs) and other ozone-depleting substances into the atmosphere.


How do chlorofluorocarbons damage ozone?

See "What is causing the depletion of the ozone layer?"


What type of gases get trapped in the ozone layer to cause this effect?

CFC's get trapped. They react with ozone to deplete it.


How do foosil fuels affect the ozone layer?

Yes they do. They release greenhouse gases which react with ozone to deplete it.


How theozone gasses in the ozone layer are being destroyed?

The ozone gases are being destroyed by CFC's. They react with ozone to deplete it.


What are the gases called that block the cycle in the ozone layer that absorbs ultraviolent radiation?

CFC's are the products. They react with ozone to deplete it.


What effect has absorption have on the ozone layer?

Absorption of certain gases like chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs) in the atmosphere can deplete the ozone layer. These gases react with ozone molecules and break them down, reducing the amount of ozone in the stratosphere. This can lead to harmful UV radiation reaching the Earth's surface, with potential impacts on human health and the environment.
