Chlorine Zachary Grindle Chemistry 1301 Professor Bott June 24‚ 2010 Chlorine has an atomic mass of 35.453‚ atomic number 17‚ is a member of the halogen family (VIIA)‚ and its symbol is “Cl”. Chlorine contains 17 protons and 18 neutrons in is nucleus. There are two isotopes for chlorine as well; Cl-35 and Cl-37. Chlorine was discovered in 1774 by Swedish chemist Carl Wilhelm Sheele. Sheele came upon chlorine when he put a few drops of hydrochloric acid (HCl)‚ then known as muriatic acid

Element: Chlorine General Information We researched the chemical element known as chlorine. Chlorine has an atomic number of 17 and an atomic weight of 35.453. It has a valence number of 3. The element has 3 energy levels. Chlorine exists as a greenish-yellow gas at normal temperatures and pressures. Chlorine is second in reactivity only to fluorine among the halogen elements. Chlorine is a nonmetal. It is estimated that 0.045% of the earth’s crust and 1.9% of sea water are chlorine. Chlorine

Determination of the concentration of chlorine ions Aim: To compare the concentration of chloride ions in pool and tap water respectively. Background: Tap water contains a variety of dissolved ions such as Ca2+‚ Mg2+‚ Na+‚ HCO3- and Cl-. In this experiment we will determine the concentration of the Cl- ions‚ and comparing it to the concentration found in a sample of pool water. The method used is the standard one for determining the concentration of chloride ions: titration with

Soil Liquefaction Dangers During Earthquakes An earthquake brings a number of hazards: • Ground shaking and shifting can cause major damage‚ tearing apart houses‚ buildings‚ and roads. • Flooding that arises from broken water dams or river levees is another hazard. • Tsunamis‚ triggered by an undersea earthquake as well as seiches – waves coming from lakes shaken by a temblor – can submerge whole communities‚ sweep away edifices‚ topple trees and drown people. • Fire is another seismic hazard

ractice Problem #1: Oxygen gas can be produced by decomposing potassium chlorate using the reaction below. If 138.6 g of KClO3 is heated and decomposes completely‚ what mass of oxygen gas is produced? KClO3 (s) --> KCl (s) + O2 (g) [unbalanced] Answer to Practice Problem #1: 1. Balance your equation first. 2KClO3 (s) --> 2KCl (s) + 3O2 (g) [balanced] 2. Convert from grams to moles using molar mass.

CHLORINE Chlorine is an element I would like to present today. It is discovered in 1774 by Carl Wilhelm Scheele and was named by Sir Humphry Davy in 1810‚ after a Greek word‚ khlôros‚ which means greenish yellow. Chlorine is in the halogen group in the periodic table with an atomic number of seventeen. Pure chlorine is yellowish-green but most common compounds with chlorine are typically colourless. The element itself was first produced in 1774 by Carl Wilhelm Scheele‚ by heating hydrochloric acid
