Molecule that captures and retains chlorine for a time. 4, record 1, English, - chlorine%20reservoir
Record number: 1, Textual support number: 1 CONT
A chlorine atom or a chlorine monoxide radical combines with another molecule to form a stable product that temporarily acts as a chlorine "reservoir" ; when chlorine is thus engaged (as it is most of the time in the normal atmosphere), it is unavailable to attack ozone. Two important reservoirs are chlorine nitrate (C1ONO2), formed by the combination of chlorine monoxide and nitrogen dioxide (NO2) and hydrochloric acid (HC1), formed from a chlorine atome and methane (CH4). 5, record 1, English, - chlorine%20reservoir

Record number: 1, Textual support number: 1 OBS
Le dioxyde d'azote, NO2, contribue à la formation d'un réservoir de chlore en se combinant au monoxyde de chlore (C10). Le chlore ainsi piégé dans cette nouvelle substance (le nitrate de chlore, C10NO2) ne peut réagir avec l'ozone pour le détruire. 2, record 1, French, - r%C3%A9servoir%20de%20chlore
