w i 1) Destruction of the ozone layer takes place when its component ozone (03) is converted O3 + 0202 into oxygen gas (O2) as shown by the following chemical equation. Although degradation of O3 happens naturally, there are some man-made substances that cause this process to take pla ce at a rate which is harmful to the environment. One such substance is chlorofluorocarbon or CFC. In the presence of ultraviolet (UV) radiation, a de chlorine (Cl) atom from CFC reacts with O3 and converts it to 02 at a faster rate. This is Cl + O3 → Clo + O2 Clo + 0- Cl + O2 shown by the 2 equations below. In this process, the chlorine atom acts as 2) Pepsin is an enzyme present in gastric juice. In the stomach, it catalyzes the breaking ! down of proteins into shorter polypeptides.
