Explain how CFCs are linked to depletion of stratospheric ozone.

Correct Answer

verifed

verified

CFCs are persistent in the environment until they encounter ultraviolet light in the stratosphere. This interaction with a UV photon will cleave the C-Cl bond in the CFC and generate a chlorine radical. The chlorine radical reacts with ozone to form chlorine monoxide radical and molecular oxygen. The chlorine monoxide radical then reacts with a molecule of ozone to produce oxygen and to regenerate a chlorine radical. The two steps are the propagating steps in a radical chain reaction whereby a single chlorine radical can destroy about 100,000 ozone molecules.
