Question

How are the supersonic jet aeroplanes responsible for the depletion of ozone layer?

Answer 1

The supersonic jet aero planes fly in the stratosphere area of the sky limit where the ozone layer is situated.

The supersonic jet aero plane emits Nitrogen oxide which readily mixes and combines with the ozone layer gas to form diatomic oxygen and Nitrogen dioxide.

This combination depletes the ozone layer making it thinner or making a hole in it.

Answer 2

Hey !!

The exhausts of supersonic jet aeroplanes contain nitric acid (NO) which combines with ozone present in the atmosphere to form nitrogen dioxide and diatomic oxygen.

              NO (g) + O₃ (g) -----> NO₂ (g) + O₂ (g)

Since, supersonic jet aeroplanes fly near the ozone layer, they are responsible for depletion of ozone layer.
