Answer:

Any of a number of halocarbon compounds made up of carbon, hydrogen, chlorine, and fluorine is known as a chlorofluorocarbon (CFC). CFCs were historically widely utilised as propellants and refrigerants in aerosols. The depletion of the ozone layer in the atmosphere is thought to be caused by chlorofluorocarbons.

Explanation:

  • The stratosphere, one of the five layers of the earth's surface, contains ozone, which absorbs UV light before it reaches the ground.
  • The main source of ozone depletion is produced paraffinated halogen chemicals, particularly CFCs, which are carried into the stratosphere by winds and release halogen atoms through photodissociation, causing ozone to be broken down into oxygen.
  • The ozone hole created as a result of this increases the amount of direct UV radiation reaching Earth, increasing the risk of skin cancer and other undesirable consequences.
