Ozone layer acts as one of the most important life support system. The major cause of ozone layer destruction is believed to be the release of chlorofluorocarbon compounds. UV radiation causes the chlorofluouocarbons to dissociate : CF_(2) Cl overset(hv)(rarr) Cl* +CF_(2) CI A highly reactive chlorine atomis responsible for the decomposition of ozone. Cl* + O_(3) (g) rarr ClO* + O_(2) (g) ClO* + O(g) rarr Cl* + O_(2) (g) Free radicals of chlorine decompose ozone molecules in a chain reaction. The depletion of ozone layer leading to ozone hole has, however, been mainly observed in the stratosphere over Antarctica. Special type of cloud called polar stratospheric colouds are formed over Antarctica.These clouds (contain solid HNO_(3).3H_(2)O ) play an important role in ozone depletion.
