    1. The document discusses ozone depletion caused by halogen radicals formed from industrial chemicals interacting with UV light. 2. Computational work and laboratory experiments show that the reaction rates leading to ozone depletion increase at lower temperatures. 3. The goals of the work are to analyze reaction rates, products, and how long-lived gases can destroy large amounts of ozone in the stratosphere.

    DEPLETION
    OZONE LAYER
    CCl3F + uv -> Cl
    CHBr2 + uv -> Br
    Human processes are forming toxic halogens
    which is X in general.
    X + O3 -> XO + O2
    XO is a radical and leads to more O3 loss.
    XO + HO2
    / \
    HX + O3 HOX + O2 The Ozone layer protects us from UV radiation!
    (ozone forming) (ozone depleting)

    GOALS:
    -analyse the rate of reactions
    -the branching ratio of products formed
    RESULT
    through computational work
    -see how these long lived gases can
    destroy large amounts of ozone causing
    Lab experiment and Theoretical (ab initio)
    major damage to our stratosphere!
    both show Temperature Dependence is
    negative. This means the lower the
    temperature, the faster the reaction.

    Overlooking ozone depletion! WHAT DO YOU THINK WE CAN DO TO AVOID IT?
