<span>The correct answer is: Chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs)

Explanation:
In simple words, CFCs are the chemical compounds made up of the following three elements:
1. Carbon
2. Chlorine
3. Fluorine

When CFCs compounds reach the upper atmosphere, the ultraviolet rays coming from the Sun break those compounds into individual elements, which then react with one of the oxygen atom of the ozone (O3) to form new compounds like chlorine monoxides. That way the ozone molecules get destroyed, resulting into the ozone depletion. Hence, the correct answer is Chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs).</span>

Answer:

The correct answer is option C,  

chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs

Explanation:

The chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs) were being used in air conditioners, aerosol spray cans, and industrial cleaning products since 1960s. These CFCs are inflammable, but once they are into atmosphere they move to the upper stratosphere and there they enter into a never ending chain reaction thereby releasing chlorine . The free chlorine react with ozone and destroy its molecule.

A charge Q is uniformly spread over one surface of a very large nonconducting square elastic sheet having sides of length d. At
yaroslaw [1]

The electric field of a very large (essentially infinitely large) plane of charge is given by:

E = σ/(2ε₀)

E is the electric field, σ is the surface charge density, and ε₀ is the electric constant.

To determine σ:

σ = Q/A

Where Q is the total charge of the sheet and A is the sheet's area. The sheet is a square with a side length d, so A = d²:

σ = Q/d²

Make this substitution in the equation for E:

E = Q/(2ε₀d²)

We see that E is inversely proportional to the square of d:

E ∝ 1/d²

The electric field at P has some magnitude E. Now we double the side length of the sheet while keeping the same amount of charge Q distributed over the sheet. By the relationship of E with d, the electric field at P must now have a quarter of its original magnitude:

E_{new} = E/4

What pollutant forms when automobile emissions react with oxygen gas and ultraviolet rays?
creativ13 [48]

Ozone is a molecule that consists of three oxygen atoms. When high-energy ultraviolet rays strike ordinary oxygen molecules (O2), they split the molecule into two single oxygen atoms, known as atomic oxygen. A freed oxygen atom then combines with another oxygen molecule to form a molecule of ozone.  Hydrocarbons and nitrogen oxides come from great variety of industrial and combustion processes. Motor vehicle exhaust and industrial emissions, gasoline vapors, and chemical solvents are some of the major sources of NOx and VOC that acts as a precursor of ozone. In urban areas, the number of automobiles are more and therefore, more production of such harmful gases. These gases in presence of sunlight leads to the formation of bad ozone.
