What is denitrification in the context of ozone depletion, andwhy is it important?
Group of answer choices
a) Denitrification is the significant lowering of theconcentration of N2 (g) in the stratosphere. Thisprocess is crucial to ozone formation, as it creates space in thestratosphere for formed ozone to reside.
b) Denitrification is the removal of NO2 (g) from thestratosphere. This process increases ozone depletion, since itprevents ClO (g) from being stored as catalytically inactiveClONO2 (g)
c) Denitrification is removal of NO (g) from the stratosphere.This is important because NO can act as a significant X catalystand drive ozone depletion.
