  • Answer: <em><u>The compounds containing CFCs (chlorofluorocarbons) are mainly responsible for ozone layer depletion as these compounds react with ozone in the presence of ultraviolet rays to form oxygen molecule and thus, destroying ozone.</u></em>

Explanation: <em><u>Human activities cause the emission of halogen source gases that contain chlorine and bromine atoms. These emissions into the atmosphere ultimately lead to stratospheric ozone depletion. The source gases that contain only carbon, chlorine, and fluorine are called chlo- rofluorocarbons usually abbreviated as CFCs.</u></em>

Answer:

CFC gases and methane gases.

Explanation:

  • Chlorofluorocarbons from the air conditioners are one of the main culprits responsible for ozone layer depletion, that react with the airborne particles in the presence of Sun's radiation breaking the ozone into oxygen atoms and as result creating large ozone hole over the planet.
  • Emission of harmful toxic gases of carbon monoxide and dioxide into the air through the vehicular exhaust also creates an atmosphere full of atmospheric black cloud.
  • Apart from this the various organism taking up O2 release methane a natural gas which can modify and trap this heat content on the earth burning of polybags and tires fossil fuels and coal also release other harmful gases which are considered to be reactive with the atmosphere.

Why can scientist assume elastic collisions as long as the temperature remains constant?
Tema [17]

Answer:

Because in elastic collisions there is no heat emission or absorption.

Explanation:

A collision is considered elastic when the total kinetic energy of the study system is conserved during the collision. Since the total kinetic energy is conserved, heat is not emitted or absorbed during the collision. Since the emission or absorption of heat is what produces changes in temperature, If the system remains at a constant temperature, there were only elastic collisions.
