Clues

  • A combination of active processes that cancel out each others effects so that there is no overall change. (7, 11)
  • High energy electromagnetic radiation including the short wavelength radiation emitted from the sun. Its energy can cause chemical reactions to take place, such as in the ozone layer or sunburn and DNA damage. (11, 5)
  • Hydrofluorocarbons are a group of chemicals used to replace CFC's (5)
  • Hydrofluorocarbons are a group of chemicals used to replace CFC's. (4)
  • Long wavelength electromagnetic radiation emitted from warm objects. (8, 9)
