Chlorine atoms cause chain reactions in the stratosphere that destroy ozone that protects the Earth's surface from ultraviolet radiation. The chlorine atoms come from chlorofluorocarbons, compounds that contain carbon, fluorine, and chlorine, which were used for many years as refrigerants. One of these compounds is Freon-12, CF2CI2. If a sample contains 1.0 × 10-° g of CI, how many grams of F should be present if all of the Fand Cl atoms in the sample came from CF2Cl2 molecules? i x 10 grams F

Question
Chlorine atoms cause chain reactions in the stratosphere that destroy ozone that protects the Earth's surface from ultraviolet
radiation. The chlorine atoms come from chlorofluorocarbons, compounds that contain carbon, fluorine, and chlorine, which were
used for many years as refrigerants. One of these compounds is Freon-12, CF2CI2. If a sample contains 1.0 x 10-9 g of CI, how many
grams of F should be present if all of the Fand Cl atoms in the sample came from CF2Cl2 molecules?
