What else can I help you with?
Ozone depletion is caused by global warming?
No, ozone depletion was caused by CFCs in the atmosphere.
How do chlorofluorocarbon destroy ozone molecules?
CFC's reach atmosphere by westerly's. They deplete ozone in presence of PSC's.
What caused the problem of the ozone?
The ozone problem was caused by human activities such as the release of chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs) and other ozone-depleting substances into the atmosphere. These substances break down ozone in the stratosphere, leading to the formation of the ozone hole.
What causes low ozone concentrations in the atmosphere?
Low ozone concentrations are caused in part by chlorofluorocarbons, or CFCs.
Is Ozone depletion caused by the release of unburned hydrocarbons into the atmosphere?
No, ozone depletion is mainly caused by the release of man-made chemicals called chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs) into the atmosphere. These chemicals break down ozone molecules in the stratosphere, leading to the thinning of the ozone layer. Unburned hydrocarbons can contribute to air pollution and smog formation, but they do not directly cause ozone depletion.
What is the name of the effect caused by this gas in the upper atmosphere?
The gas you are referring to might be ozone. The effect caused by ozone in the upper atmosphere is the formation of the ozone layer. This layer protects Earth by absorbing the majority of the sun's harmful ultraviolet radiation.
Why is the presence of ozone in the atmosphere important?
The ozone is a three atom gas. It is important not to damage it because it protects us.
Why is the presence of an ozone layer in the atmosphere inportantt?
Ozone layer protects us from the UV rays. These UV rays are fatal to life on earth.
What is the ozone hole and where is it?
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. Ozone layer is depletion is happening in the stratosphere of the earth's atmosphere. It is majorly concentrated over Antarctica's atmosphere.
What causes low ozone concentrations in the atmosphere?
Low ozone concentrations in the atmosphere are primarily caused by human activities such as the release of ozone-depleting substances like chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs) and other pollutants. These substances break down ozone molecules in the stratosphere, leading to a decrease in ozone levels.
What catalyst is effective in destruction of atmosphere ozone O3?
The greenhouse gases acts as catalysts in destruction of ozone. The destruction is mainly caused by CFC's.
Ozone depletion is caused by the release of unburned hydrocarbons into the atmosphere?
Ozone depletion is primarily caused by the release of chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs) and halons into the atmosphere, which break down ozone molecules. Unburned hydrocarbons can contribute to the formation of ground-level ozone, a component of smog, but are not the main cause of ozone depletion in the stratosphere.
