Every one of us knows what the job role of Ozone up there is. It protects us from the harmful rays of sun. But we want to know about the rival of that Ozone, CFC (Chlorofluorocarbons).
Ozone layer got some natural enemies up there which is formally known as NO but chlorine has been added as another rival to the ozone since the past century.
However CFC don’t react with everything but it break down to divide its Chlorine molecule with the help of sunlight. The chlorine molecule that got divide from the CFC reaches the Ozone and star depleting it in mean time.
The chlorine molecules that reach the ozone layer react with to form chlorine monoxide and oxygen. When the converted Chlorine Monoxide meets another oxygen molecule it releases another molecule of chlorine and the chlorine that released from the reaction will continue its Ozone Hunt Down.
This is how Chlorofluorocarbons interrelated with Ozone to form a depletion in ozone layer up there in the stratosphere.
