Biodegradation of chlorinated hydrocarbons is not significant.
YES! dichloromethane, dichloroethane, chloroform are the examples

Yes, the formation and destruction of ozone is an equilibrium reaction in the stratosphere.The formation and destruction of ozone is an ongoing process between oxygen and ultraviolet light in the stratosphere. Problems with the ozone layer developed when chlorine from chlorinated hydrocarbons (freon and CGS, etc) moved the equilibrium point in the ozone formation/destruction cycle towards a state of less ozone.Efforts to reduce the use and release of chlorinated hydrocarbons has receded the chlorinated hydrocarbons in the atmosphere and returned to ozone levels to a more normal equilibrium point.
Organic solvent can be an oxidizing agent in some circumstances but usually is not. All hydrocarbon solvents, chlorinated hydrocarbons and ethers are not for example.

Monatomic chlorine transported by chlorinated-fluorinated hydrocarbons (e.g. freons, CFCs) used in refrigerators, freezers, air conditioners, aerosol cans, etc. The monatomic chlorine acts as a catalyst, with one chlorine atom decomposing many thousands of molecules of ozone to oxygen before being removed or neutralized. This effect is many orders of magnitude larger than the natural variation with the seasons and has the potential of destroying the entire ozone layer if the use of chlorinated-fluorinated hydrocarbons is uncontrolled. However, fluorinated hydrocarbons (FCs) and hydro-chlorinated-fluorinated hydrocarbons (HCFCs) can perform the same functions as CFCs without transporting chlorine to the ozone layer. FCs contain no chlorine and HCFCs break apart in the lower atmosphere.

It is said to be water soluble. Other materials may be soluble in oils, aromatic hydrocarbons, or chlorinated compounds.

Two common are shared by most insecticide chemicals. They are chlorinated hydrocarbons and organophosphates. Newer chemicals include parathion and malathion.
Aromatic hydrocarbons like toluene, ketones, paraffins, chlorinated hydrocarbons and turpentine.
