CFC is called as Chloroflurocarbon.They are non-flammable, non-toxic and non-cacinogenic. Man made CFCs are the main cause of Stratospheric ozone depletion. CFCs have lifetime of about 20 to 100 years and consequently one free chlorine atom from CFC molecule can do a lot of damage, destroying ozone molecules...

CFC stands for Chlorofluorocarbon. As the name suggests, it consists of chlorine, fluorine, and carbon. They are mainly used as refrigerants in cooling systems. As it is released in the atmosphere, it reacts with light and produces the chlorine (Cl-) radical. This chlorine radical, catalyzes the Ozone...

As it is released in the atmosphere, it reacts with light and produces the chlorine (Cl-) radical. This chlorine radical, catalyzes the Ozone (O3) present in the atmosphere, and breaks down ozone into oxygen molecule. Hence, ozone depletion occurs. read less
