Chemistry Question on Environmental Chemistry

Which of these reactions is not a part of breakdown of ozone in stratosphere?

A

CF2Cl2(g)uvC˙l(g)+C˙F2Cl(g)CF_2Cl_2(g)\xrightarrow{uv}\dot{C}l(g)+\dot{C}F_2Cl(g)

B

Cl˙(g)+O3(g)ClO˙(g)+O2(g)C\dot{l}(g)+O_3(g)\rightarrow Cl\dot{O}(g)+O_2(g)

C

ClO˙(g)+O(g)Cl˙(g)+O2(g)Cl\dot{O}(g)+O(g)\rightarrow C\dot{l}(g)+O_2(g)

D

2ClO˙ClO2(g)+Cl˙(g)2Cl\dot{O}\rightarrow ClO_2(g)+C\dot{l}(g)

Answer

2ClO˙ClO2(g)+Cl˙(g)2Cl\dot{O}\rightarrow ClO_2(g)+C\dot{l}(g)

Explanation

Solution

The correct option is(D): 2ClO˙ClO2(g)+Cl˙(g)2Cl\dot{O}\rightarrow ClO_2(g)+C\dot{l}(g)
