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 9, English, - chlorine%20reservoir
