STATE OF MATTER:
Chlorine can come in various states, depending on where you get it from, yet its original state is gas. Halogens exist at room temperature, which makes chlorines condition of being a gas. It can come out of ocean water as a liquid after purification and from the earth’s crust as a solid.
MELTING POINT:
-101.5 °C
BOILING POINT:
-34.05 °C
WHAT OTHER SUBSTANCES(S) DOES CHLORINE REACT WITH?
- Reacted with metals, dissolved slightly in water and bleached flours and leaves
- Reacts with water to produce hypochlorite
- Under hard conditions, excess fluorine reacts with chlorine, Cl2 at 225 °C to form interhalogen species
- Reacts with hot aqueous alkali to produce chlorate, ClO3. only 1/6 of chlorine is converted in the reaction.
LUSTRE:
Very low luster, and most areas with no luster
CONDUCTIVITY:
The variations of electrical conductivity with the temperature of chlorine have been measured from near boiling points to well below melting points. A maximum conductivity of chlorine has been observed, and possible mechanisms for the negative, temperature are dissolved.
COLOUR:
Chlorine is a green-yellow gas.
DENSITY:
Density at STP (standard temperature and pressure) 3.2L
APPEARANCE:
Green-yellow, irritating gas. At high or low temperature: translucent
ATOMIC VOLUME:
18.7 (rounded to 19)
GRAVITY:
1.56 (-33.6°C
