Question

Which of the following is incorrect?

(a) Freon consumes ultraviolet radiation, thus protects from harmful UV radiation

(b)O₃ → O₂ + O; endothermic

(c) Ozone layer protects from UV radiation

(d) Stability of freon decreases with pressure

Answer 1

Correct Option (a) Freon consumes ultraviolet radiation, thus protects from harmful UV radiation

Explanation:

Freons consume radiation in order to dissociate into free radicals e.g.,

Cl radicals eventually consumes O₃ dramatically, Hence, ozone depletion, finally will not prevents from UV radiation.
