Atomic Br is more efficient at catalytically destroying ozone than atomic Cl in the stratosphere due to a relatively higher proportion of the Br atoms being in a catalytically active form at any given time. O Atomic Br is currently a more important catalyst of ozone destruction in the stratosphere than Cl is. Atomic Br reacts less readily with CH4 than atomic Cl does, making HBr a less effective reservoir molecule for Br than HCI is for Cl. O BRONO2 is readily photodecomposed, limiting its effectiveness as a reservoir for Br. O HBr is readily photodecomposed, making it a less effective reservoir for Br than HCI is for Cl.
