What role do CFCs play in the catalytic destruction of ozone?
- (a) Ozone is destroyed upon binding to a CFC molecule that has been energized by ultraviolet light.
- (b) There is no strong scientific evidence that CFCs play a significant role in the catalytic destruction of ozone.
- (c) CFC molecules activate chlorine atoms into their catalytic action.
- (d) CFC molecules migrate to the upper stratosphere where they generate chlorine atoms upon being destroyed by ultraviolet light.
