Chapter 11, Problem 35E
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The error in the argument “CFCs are heavier than air and therefore do not make it to the stratosphere” is to be explained.

Concept Introduction:

HCFCs and CFCs are a class of inert compounds of carbon, chlorine, and fluorine. They are quite useful for many applications but the inertness of CFCs has an environmental effect because of the presence of chlorine. Chlorinehas made a hole in the ozone layer, which was the biggest environmental concern. Hence, it was banned in 1978.
