We learned in class that sulfur is emitted naturally in a reduced form (H2S) and that nitrogen is also emitted naturally in a reduced form (N2O). Explain in one short sentence the similarity between what happens to H2S and what happens to N2O once they are emitted into the atmosphere.

Chlorine atoms contribute to the destruction of the Earths ozone layer by the following sequence of reactions: Cl + O3 ClO + O2 ClO + O Cl + O2 where the O atoms in the second step come from the decomposition of ozone by sunlight: O3(g) O(g) + O2(g) What is the net equation on summing these three equations? Why does this lead to ozone loss in the stratosphere? What is the role played by Cl in this sequence of reactions? What name is given to species such as ClO?
