B Correct answer
Explanation

CFCs (chlorofluorocarbons) were widely used as refrigerants in refrigerators and air conditioners due to their excellent heat transfer properties. They were phased out after being identified as major ozone-depleting substances under the Montreal Protocol. TVs and tube lights don't use CFCs, and cooking gas (LPG) is a fuel, not a refrigerant.
