Q

How are chlorine radicals formed in the upper atmosphere?

A

When the energy from UV radiation causes the carbon chlorine bond to break

17
Q

Write the radical substitution reaction of ozone and chlorine

A

Kkk

18
Q

Why does chlorine free radical atoms catalyse the composition of ozone?

A

As they are regenerated
They provide an alternative route with a lower activation energy which is contributed to the formation of holes in the ozonelayer
