Mercury was used in the past for the production of chlorine because it could form an amalgam with chlorine, making it easier to separate chlorine gas from the electrolysis process. However, the use of mercury in chlorine production has declined due to environmental concerns surrounding the toxic effects of mercury exposure.
No, bromine, mercury, chlorine, sodium, and sulfur are not gases. Bromine is a liquid, mercury is a liquid at room temperature, chlorine is a gas, and sodium and sulfur are solid at room temperature. Each of these elements can undergo chemical reactions under the right conditions.
Chlorine itslf is not mined. The materials used to produce chlorine (NaCl) is mined. Chlorine is produced by electrolytic reaction of a chloride solution (e.g. NaCl) in a process involving a diaphragm cell or a mercury cell. The mercury cell process has been largely discontinued because of its associated loss of mercury to the environment.
Since chlorine gas is a diatomic molecule (Cl2), one mole of chlorine gas contains two moles of chlorine atoms. Therefore, 6.00 moles of chlorine atoms would be equivalent to 3.00 moles of chlorine gas.
As much as the gas tank will hold... ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- On a 1997 Mercury Grand Marquis , the gas tank capacity is ( 20.0 U.S. gallons )
Mercury is a rocky planet and is too close to the sun to retain much of an atmosphere, much less become a gas giant.
The element you are referring to is probably mercury (Hg). Green mercury(II) sulfide is a common compound of mercury that can sometimes be referred to as "green mercury poison." However, it is important to note that mercury poisoning can result from exposure to various forms of mercury, not just green mercury compounds.
Chlorine gas. Clorine is a diatomic molecule at normal pressure and temperature, so much like how Oxygen is normally O2, Chlorine is normally Cl2.
No. Chlorine gas is highly toxic.
Mercury and chlorine in a hot sealed tube may form Mercuric chloride HgCl2
No. Chlorine gas is 100% chlorine and nothing else.
Yes, swallowing chlorine gas can be very harmful. It can cause difficulty breathing, chest pain, coughing, nausea, vomiting, and even death if not treated promptly. It is important to seek medical help immediately if exposed to chlorine gas.
