Question

Write a note on Ozone layer depletion .. class 10 ​

Answer 1

Answer:

Ozone layer depletion is the process of thinning of the ozone layer that is present in the upper atmosphere. This happens when the chlorine and bromine atoms in the atmosphere will come in contact with the ozone and destroys the ozone molecules.

Explanation:

Ozone layer is a very thin part of the Earth's atmosphere that absorbs almost all of the sun's harmful UV radiation.

Due to this, there will be formation of ozone holes through which the ultraviolet rays can enter the earth's surface. Ozone layer depletion is the thinning of this ozone layer that is present in the upper atmosphere. This happens when the chlorine and bromine atoms in the atmosphere will come in contact with the ozone (O3) and will destroy the ozone molecules. One chlorine can destroy 100,000 molecules of the ozone.
