Chlorine is a toxic gas that irritates the skin, the eyes and the respiratory system.
Chlorine is a greenish-yellow, diatomic, dense gas with a sharp smell (the smell of bleach).
It is not found free in nature as it combines readily with nearly all other elements.
Chlorine occurs in nature mainly as common salt (NaCl), carnallite [KMgCl2.6(H2O)], and sylvite (KCl).
In its liquid and solid form it is a powerful bleaching, oxidizing and disinfecting agent.
