Ozone depletion occur due to chain reaction initiated by CFC and other radicals. let CH2FCl be a CFC then the reaction would be such , CH2FCl = Cl . (chlorine radical) + remaining part O3 + Cl . = O2 + O . (formation of radical oxygen)+ Cl . and this radical oxygen propagate the whole reaction until termination occur !!

DevinChlorine and bromine compounds, known as halogenated chemicals, commonly catalyze the breakdown of ozone into molecular oxygen. These chemicals are released into the atmosphere through human activities such as industrial processes and the use of certain products like refrigerants and solvents.
Assuming the liquid is water... Using intense 254nm UV will break ozone down without any chemical feed. Ozone has a strong affinity for H2S, blue dyes, metals that are not fully oxidized, and any compound with carbon-carbon double bonds (aromatics). Ozone survives just a few millimeters into either diatomaceous earth, multi-media sand, or granular carbon filters. Caution: ozone will convert manganese to permanganate ion, which is water soluble and can be a whole different problem. Heating the water and / or raising the water's pH above 8 will cause the ozone to decay more rapidly. Waiting 24 hours will let the ozone decay without doing anything more. Blowing air through the water will strip the ozone from the water, and place most of it in the air stream leaving the water. Liquid ozone will spontaneously "deflagrate" to oxygen gas plus heat if you treat it less than gently. Think of a not very slow *boom*.

What are molecular elements in chemicals?
Oxygen, hydrogen, nitrogen, chlorine, fluorine have diatomic molecules.
Does anaerobic need enzymes?
Yes, anaerobic processes need enzymes to catalyze the various chemical reactions that occur without the presence of oxygen. Enzymes are essential for facilitating the breakdown of substrates and energy production in anaerobic organisms.
Which part of the breakdown of glucose requires molecular oxygen O2?
The aerobic respiration process, which occurs in the mitochondria of cells, requires molecular oxygen (O2) to fully break down glucose into ATP (energy). This includes the Krebs cycle and the electron transport chain. If oxygen is not present, cells can undergo anaerobic respiration, which is less efficient.
What is the enzyme classification of cyclooxygenase?
Cyclooxygenase is classified as an oxidoreductase enzyme. It specifically belongs to the class of dioxygenases, which are enzymes that catalyze the incorporation of both atoms of molecular oxygen into organic substrates.
What raw material is responsible for the release of molecular oxygen in photosynthesis?
Water (H2O) is the source of the molecular oxygen.
