Mixing a chlorine solution with any acid has the potential to release chlorine gas, which can be fatal if exposed to enough of it. If Chlorine gas comes in contact with water, or a mucus membrane (such as your eyes, nasal passage, or lungs) it will form Hydrochloric acid.

Chlorine IS a GAS, at standard temperature and pressure [basically, normal ambient atmospheric temperature and pressure]. Chlorine gas mixed with water makes Hydrochloric Acid. IF one dissolves as much Chlorine into water as the water will hold, then one has created Concentrated Hydrochloric Acid [better known as Muriatic Acid]. Therefore, if trying to mix Chlorine gas into Muriatic Acid [Concentrated Hydrochloric Acid] the result is that the gas will only "pass through" [bubble through] the already fully concentrated liquid acid. Yes, there will be gas released, but not from any kind of chemical reaction, only by bubbling through, because the the concentrated acid can/will take NO MORE Chlorine gas.

What reaction do you get when you mix chlorine with engine oil?

if you add motor oil to chlorine slowly mixing as you go until the chlorine is just damp not saturated just damp. You want it to be in a metal container like a coffee tin. Add it to a fire you have until the first flame touches and you will have a 15 foot high jet engine looking flame shooting out for roughly 20 to 30 seconds depends on how much you use.

Does metal free take out chlorine?

No, metal-free does not have the ability to remove chlorine from water. Metal-free is typically a product used to sequester or bind metal ions in the water to prevent staining or other issues. To remove chlorine from water, you would need to use a chlorine neutralizer or a water filtration system that is designed to remove chlorine.
