the class used chlorine 36 that was in the middle of a metal plate that was placed under Geiger counter and the starting measurement was 30 mm from the detector to the last reading was 84 mm.As the plate containing chlorine 36 was moving away from the Geiger tube the amount of counts were decreasing until the fourth measurement at semi 3 mm was 2476.5 average clicks. The fourth set must been the right distance away from Geiger counter to pick up on gamma radiation of the chlorine 36 however, the
Chlorine is manufactured commercially by running an electric current through salt water. As results of this process a free chlorine, hydrogen, and sodium hydroxide are produced. Consequently, the Chlorine is changed to its liquid form by compressing the gas, the resulting liquid is the chlorine, which is usually mixed into drinking water and swimming pools to disinfect bacteria. Unfortunately, the chlorination causes the formation of the Disinfection By-products (DBPs), also known as Trihalomethanes
Bomb is a product that provides a solution to floating chlorine dispensers in pools and the potentially irritating scent that chlorine emits. The problem with the floating chlorine dispensers in pools is that there is a possibility that it will not add chlorine to the water effectively because it may get stuck in one section of the pool and water cannot effectively pass through the dispenser. The design of the pool bomb will allow for the chlorine to spread throughout the pool effectively, and other
The Sometimes Deadly Chlorine Chlorine is a yellowish-green poisonous gas with a very unpleasant and strong odor. (Appelman 516) It ranges from being used to kill in World War 1, to being used combined with sodium to make table salt. It can be a very dangerous element, but yet used for so many good things. Chlorine has a ton of history, multiple uses, and an interesting atomic structure. Chlorine combines with almost every single element, so it cannot be found in nature alone. It was first made
solutes, including distilled water, acetone, aspirin, and chlorine, then the chlorine solution will have the fastest growing plants. According to the chi square, there was no significant difference between how long it took for the plants to grow in the different solutions. This was because the chi square value was .3 which is less than the critical value which is 7.82. This is contrary to previously found research, that stated how chlorine is a necessary component to plant growth and would also be
keep the water clear. The two main methods of sanitization are Chlorine and Bromine. Chlorine is the most widely used pool/hot tub sanitizer, it comes in liquid, granular or tablet form. Tablets are best for keeping a steady supply of chlorine over a long period of time, while liquid
formed in a sample of reservoir water when it is disinfected with chlorine or chloramine and to what extent do both chloramine and free chlorine decompose when exposed to ultraviolet light?” Abstract This investigation aims to find out how pH affects the concentration of trihalomethanes formed in a sample of reservoir water when it is disinfected with chlorine or chloramine and the extent to which both free chlorine and chloramine decompose when exposed to ultraviolet light.

gases (Oxygen gas and Chlorine gas) at the anode during the electrolysis of sodium chloride solution. In my previous chemistry classes, I have learnt that concentration affects the majority of the gas produced at the anode. This made me wonder, how does the ratio of oxygen gas to chlorine gas produced at the anode vary at the electrodes. This made me formulate the research question: How does the concentration of Sodium Chloride solution affect the ratio of oxygen gas to chlorine gas produced at the
used as weapons since thousands of years ago, though it was until World War 1 where the first large-scale of them was used. Battles normally ended in a draw, which prompted finding new fighting strategies. Four main kinds of gases were used; tear, chlorine, phosgene, and mustard (I, n.d.). These gases were the most feared of all weapons in the war, for the reason that their effects were unknown in the battlefield. The majority thinks Germans were the first to utilize them, however, it was actually
Chemical weapons have some “immediate effects of chlorine gas toxicity include acute inflammation of the conjunctiva, nose, pharynx, larynx, trachea, and bronchi. Irritation of the airway mucosa leads to local edema secondary to active arterial and capillary hyperemia. Blistering gas is another form of
that you wouldn’t think about chlorine at all. Chlorine is used to purify water, you might say. Nevertheless, chlorine can have negative effects on your health. Let’s see what chlorine is and what effects it can have on you. What’s chlorine and why do we use it? Chlorine is a chemical element with numerous applications. You know one of its compounds, and you probably use it every day. I’m talking about sodium chlorine, also known as salt. On the other hand, chlorine gas has been used as a weapon
Chlorides of group || cations contain (Cadmium chloride, Mercuric chloride, Copper chloride and Bismuth chloride). 1- Mercuric chloride HgCl2:- It's poisonous odorless white crystalline solid, very toxic compound, and it's slightly volatile at ordinary temperatures. Parent acid and base: Hydrochloric acid HCl + Hg(OH) 2 Uses:- *Antiseptic and disinfectant in insecticides, preservatives, and batteries. *Antibacterial. * Obsolete substance. Preparation: Mercuric chloride can be obtained
The hypothesis stated the further away the water source is from civilization, the less unnatural ions there will be present in it.. The reference table shows that only phosphate and chlorine is present in the sample. In the reference table the results show that the liquid in the sample test tube did not change color in the sample test tube with the ion samples of calcium and iron III.

Ethylene dichloride is a chlorinated organic compound consisting of two singly bonded carbon atoms bonded to one chlorine atom on each carbon and is assigned the CAS registry number 107-06-2scifinder. Ethylene dichloride should not be confused with 1,2-dichloroethylene which contains a double bond between the two carbons. Although a stable compound at room temperature, it does slowly decompose in the presence of oxygen and UV light turning a darker colour, and at temperatures above 340 oC it
History of Chemical Warfare World war 1 “During World War I, chlorine and phosgene gases were released from canisters on the battlefield and dispersed by the wind. These chemicals were manufactured in large quantities by the turn of the century and were deployed as weapons during the protracted period of trench warfare. The first large-scale attack with chlorine gas occurred 22 April 1915 at Ieper in Belgium. The use of several different types of chemical weapons, including mustard gas (yperite)

plunges at me, guttering, choking, drowning”(Document C). The soldier that tells the story states of his horrors of war and how a man died in a gas attack and he was not able to save him, “under the green sea, I saw him drowning” the green sea was the chlorine gas that was dropped. It is called green gas due to it not actually being green but due to the gas shell marked green in the German and British Artillery Brigade. The soldier himself saw a person die right before his eyes from the gas which foreshadows
minds of the citizens of their nation feeding into the nationalism that caused the war in the first place. Chemical warfare had a tremendous impact on military strategies and tactics and nearly altered the course of World War I. The Germans fired chlorine gas during World War
Radical Chlorination of 1-Chlorobutane Stella Greathouse March 3, 2023 Abstract A light-initiated reaction between sodium hypochlorite and hydrochloric acid was done to carry out the radical chlorination of 1-chlorobutane. The product was then extracted using sodium bicarbonate and dried using anhydrous sodium sulfate. The amount of each dichlorobutane product was then found through gas chromatography analysis. These amounts then helped to determine the relative reactivities of the hydrogens in
is its formula? A: ZnCl2 3. Can you determine the atomic weights of zinc or copper by the methods used in this experiment? How? What additional information is necessary in order to do this? A: Yes, we need molar mass of sulfur, hydrogen, and chlorine. Then set the molar mass of copper and zinc to x and y. And use the mole ratio, which is 1:1 for two reactions to solve the unknown. 4. How many grams of zinc chloride could be formed from the reaction of 3.57g of zinc with excess HCl? A: 3.75g
