CHEM 110 Lecture Notes - Lecture 5: Montreal Protocol
Document Summary
A chlorine atom from one cfc can destroy upwards of 100,000 ozone molecules. The cfc phaseout in developed countries was in. Sherwood rowland published a paper in nature describing the cl atom (from cfcs) catalyzed destruction of ozone. The hfcf phaseout in developed countries in 2020, and developing countries in 2030. With no protocol, it"s predicted that we would get an exponential increase in chlorine concentration in the stratosphere. With the protocol, there"s decreasing chlorine concentration in the stratosphere, but it has already been done, so we just can no longer add anymore. Over the past century, earth"s temperature has increased. Heat always flows from warm body/area to cold body/area. The greenhouse effects is defined by the following: some of the sun"s energy is absorbed by the.
