Which refrigerant is HCFC?

Explanation:
R-22 is an HCFC refrigerant. HCFCs contain hydrogen, chlorine, and fluorine, which gives them ozone depletion potential, though less than CFCs. Among common options, R-22 includes chlorine, so it’s the HCFC. The others shown are an HFC (R-134a), another HFC (R-32), and a hydrocarbon (R-600A), none of which contain chlorine. HCFCs are being phased out and replaced with refrigerants with lower or no ozone-depleting potential.
