A mixture of chlorine and oxygen gases does not react. However a photochemical reaction can occur when a mixture of gases is irradiated with UV light. This forms the chlorine monoxide, ClO a molecule with an odd number of electrons, a radical. This is highly reactive.
Chemists have synthesised a number of chlorine oxygen compounds but these do not involve the reaction of the gases.
There are a number of compounds known, chlorine dioxide, ClO2, dichlorine monoxide, Cl2O, dichlorine hexoxide, Cl2O6; dichlorine heptoxide, Cl2O7. All of these are reactive compounds. Additionally there are a number of chloroxy anions, such as hypochlorites, ClO- , chlorites, ClO2- and perchlorates, ClO4-
Not normally, both are oxidizers.
However, in the presence of light energy (hv) the following reaction has been detected:
Cl2 + hv --> 2 Cl
Under isothermal conditions:
Cl + O2 + M <---> ClOO + M
Cl + ClOO --> 2 ClO
and upon decomposition:
2 ClO --> Cl2 + O2

It reacts with water and a base called a hot aqueous alkali.
Does chlorine react with anything other than water, if it does what substance will react with it to form a chemical change/firer or in blowing up
Many metals and quite a few non -metals. Chlorine reacts with most elements.
Chlorine is highly reactive. It forms ionic bonds like NaCl and CaCl2 and displaces hydrogen in organic compounds.

It does not react with any element, but it does with any besides water. Chlorine is classified as a halogen, a highly reactive nonmetal.
sodium (Na) and chlorine (Cl)
Calcium, sodium and hydrogen to name a few.
Chlorine was isolated before fluorine because fluorine is the most reactive element and can react to the most other elements, making it hard to isolate and separate from other elements.
sodium and chlorine are alike because together they make table salt. they also react differently when exposed to different elements on the periodic table.
Chlorine reacts violently with a large number of elements.
Oxygen, chlorine, fluorine.
It does not react with any element, but it does with any besides water. Chlorine is classified as a halogen, a highly reactive nonmetal.
Chlorine
sodium will react chlorine to form sodium chloride
non-metals like chlorine, bromine etc.
sodium (Na) and chlorine (Cl)
Calcium, sodium and hydrogen to name a few.
The elements chlorine and hydrogen react with each another to form the compound hydrogen chloride.
The elements sodium and chlorine {note spelling} react to form sodium chloride.
potassium and chlorine
Chlorine was isolated before fluorine because fluorine is the most reactive element and can react to the most other elements, making it hard to isolate and separate from other elements.
