NOx is the byproduct of water vapor blocking one path of ozone production. An oxygen atom is temporarily stored in an unstable state on a nitrogen molecule (N2O*). Encountering a water molecule stabilizes the NOx. NOx does not itself decay ozone, but acts as a "getter" for water vapor (further protecting ozone). NOx is like the dead body for a stillborn ozone molecule.
What else can I help you with?
What will be the role of depletion of ozone layer on ecosystem?
Depletion of ozone will deplete the ecosystem. There will be nothing left.
How does acid rain effect the ozone layer?
It doesn't. Ozone depletion is caused by CFCs and other halogen containing materials not NOx or SOx
Why is ozone depletion worse in cities?
Ozone depletion is not worse in cities. If you measure the effects of ozone depletion by the number of people affected, there are more people per unit area in cities. Ozone depletion affects every unit area more-or-less equally. Ozone pollution affects cities worst, since NOx is mostly produced by urban and suburban<->urban traffic.
What is the role of ozone depletion?
Ozone depletion performs the negative feedback role of destroying the life forms, that create the pollutants, that deplete ozone. See the related questions below.
What plants play role in controlling in ozone depletion?
Plants play a huge huge role. They create oxygen which forms ozone.
Ozone depletion occurs in the?
Ozone depletion occurs in the ozone layer.
Do Volcanoes and Oceans contribute to the Ozone Depletion?
Volcanoes release sulfur dioxide and ash into the atmosphere, but their impact on ozone depletion is minimal compared to human activities. Oceans do not contribute to ozone depletion but play a role in absorbing harmful ultraviolet radiation.
What is definition of Ozone layer depletion?
Ozone depletion is the depletion of ozone molecules. It is happening because of CFC's.
What is the mjor cause of the ozone depletion?
The major cause of ozone depletion is the reaction of CFC with ozone. They decompose ozone and cause its depletion.
What is the role of CFC in ozone destruction?
CFC's have the major role. They are the ones that deplete the ozone.
What is role of man in protecting ozone layer?
To prevent ozone depletion, we should:Plant more treesAVoid using CFC's.
What does zone depletion refer to?
Ozone depletion refers to the depletion of ozone molecules. These molecules are present in the ozone layer.
