Ozone in stratosphere is depleted by
- A \(\mathrm{C}_7 \mathrm{~F}_{16}\)
- B \(\mathrm{CF}_2 \mathrm{Cl}_2\)
- C \(\mathrm{C}_6 \mathrm{H}_6 \mathrm{Cl}_2\)
- D \(\mathrm{CF}_3 \mathrm{Cl}^2\)
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(B) \(\mathrm{CF}_2 \mathrm{Cl}_2\)
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
Ozone depletion is caused by a number of pollutants like chlorofluoro carbons \(\left(\mathrm{CF}_2 \mathrm{Cl}_2\right)\) nitrogen oxides, \(\mathrm{CCl}_4\) etc.
