Since the CFCs contain chlorine, breaking them up would result in the release of these reactive atoms. Each chlorine atom combined with one oxygen atom from an ozone molecule, which is also reactive, to yield a chlorine monoxide molecule and an oxygen molecule. In other words, the CFCsâ chlorine atoms attack ozone.While this process of CFCs dissociating is happening, the ultraviolet radiation also causes oxygen molecules to break down into free oxygen atoms.ince the CFCs contain chlorine, breaking them up would result in the release of these reactive atoms.

Ozone absorbs UV-B, which would otherwise damage our DNA, and the DNA of all surface dwellers on Earth (including phytoplankton in the oceans). This absorption of UV-B or more energetic light breaks the ozone down into an oxygen molecule and a single oxygen atom.here is also ozone in the lower troposphere, but the ozone layer in the stratosphere contains helpful ozone that blocks much of the ultraviolet radi â¦ ation. Without this layer, life on earth would be very difficult.
