Tardigrade Admin · Accepted Answer

Polar stratospheric clouds provide surface on which hydrolysis of ClONO 2 takes place to form HOCl (Hypochlorous acid) ClONO 2( g )+ H 2 O ( g ) arrow HOCl ( g )+ HNO 3( g )

Q. Polar stratospheric clouds facilitate the formation of :

$C I ON O_{2}$

$H OCl$

$ClO$

$C H_{4}$

Polar stratospheric clouds provide surface on which hydrolysis of $ClON O_{2}$ takes place to form $H OCl$ (Hypochlorous acid)
$ClON O_{2} (g) + H_{2} O (g) \to H OCl (g) + H N O_{3} (g)$
