In an article in the New York Times,(75) A. Revkin pointed out that: In the early 1970s, when scientists first reported that CFCs could destroy ozone, some theorized that the effect would be most discernible in the highest reaches of the
 
  atmosphere over the tropics, partly because of the abundance of sunlight. What happened when the experiments were performed? Explain how the conditions mandated this experimental result.

Question 2

Carbon-15 and nitrogen-15 are isotopes of the same element.

Answer to Question 1

Experiment showed that the effects occurred at the poles, not at the Equator. It
was at the very low temperatures that the ozone depletion occurred because of the chemical
reactivity there.

Answer to Question 2

Isotopes have the same number of protons, and therefore the same atomic identity.
Carbon and nitrogen are not the same atom.
