PROJECT WORK. “Our markets” RENDERING AND ANNOTATION UNIT 5. Description of chemical elements STARTING UP. Make a list of chemical elements you know READING CHLORINE Chlorine is an element with atomic number 17, atomic weight 35.5 (thirty-five point five). It is a gas at ordinary temperatures and is never found free in nature. It is found in nature combined with other elements. At normal temperatures, chlorine is a diatomic gas (C12), greenish-yellow in colour and about 2 1/2 (two and a half) times as heavy as air. It liquefies at atmospheric pressure at —34. 1° C (minus thirty-four point one degrees Centigrade) to a yellowish liquid approximately 11/2 (one and a half) times as heavy as water. The liquid freezes at —100.98° C (minus one hundred point nine eight degrees Centigrade). Chlorine is soluble in water and indirectly exerts bleaching and bactericidal action by reacting with water to form hypochlorous acid. Cl2 + H2O ↔ HCl + HClO → HCl + (O) Chlorine Water Hydrochloric Hypochloric acid acid The hypochlorous acid is unstable, giving up oxygen to form more HC1. The oxygen attacks and destroys bacteria; it also oxidizes coloured organic substances, forming colourless or less-coloured components. As one of the most active elements, chlorine ranks in reactivity about with oxygen. It combines directly and readily with hydrogen and most non-metals except nitrogen, carbon and oxygen; it also unites with all the familiar metals except gold and platinum. Participating in a number of important organic reactions, in some cases chlorine appears in the final product, as in insecticides (DDT) or in the plastic, polyvinil chloride. Chlorine is generally produced by electrolysis of water solutions of sodium chloride in electrolytic cells. When sodium chloride or potassium chloride solutions are subjected to electrolysis, there are three products; caustic soda or caustic potash, chlorine and hydrogen. If fused sodium chloride is used, there are two products: chlorine, and metallic sodium. жүктеу/скачать 64,23 Kb. Достарыңызбен бөлісу:
