Question
question 4 points 3 which of the following best explains why the use of aerosol spray is the cause of ozone layer depletion? the liquids that are released cause the depletion of ozone layer. the gases that are released cause the earths surface to heat up faster. the liquids that are released create less number of ozone molecules in the ozone layer the gases that are released cause the reduction of level of ozone in the stratosphere
Aerosol sprays release chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs) and other ozone - depleting substances. These gases rise to the stratosphere and react with ozone molecules, reducing the ozone level. The first option about liquids is incorrect as it's the gases that matter. The second option is about global warming, not ozone depletion. The third option about liquids creating fewer ozone molecules is inaccurate; it's the gas - phase reactions in the stratosphere that are key.
