JEE Main 25 July 2021, Shift 2, Chemistry Q41

Question 41 of 90 in this shift, Chemistry question 11 of 30, Section A.

Given below are two statements : Statement I : Chlorofluoro carbons breakdown by radiation in the visible energy region and release chlorine gas in the atmosphere which then reacts with stratospheric ozone. Statement II : Atmospheric ozone reacts with nitric oxide to give nitrogen and oxygen gases, which add to the atmosphere. For the above statements choose the correct answer from the options given below :
  1. (1)Both statement I and II are correct
  2. (2)Both statement I and II are falseOfficial answer
  3. (3)Statement I is correct but statement II is false
  4. (4)Statement I is incorrect but statement II is true
