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 levels above a minimum concentration can cause pollution and harmful health effects. Ozone is created when volatile organic compounds (VOCs) react with oxygen in the atmosphere. The electrical energy in lightning can create ozone from oxygen molecules. The Earth's ozone layer was significantly reduced by CFCs, found in aerosol spray cans and other products.
