Explanation:

A Chloro Fluoro Carbon (CFC) is an organic compound that contains only carbon, chlorine and fluorine, produced as a volatile derivative of methane and ethane. The manufacture of CFC has been phased out (and replaced with products such as R-410 A) by the montreal protocol because they contribute to ozone depletion in the upper atmosphere.
