Chlorine 35 is the most common it is mostly found In pools and in sometimes bleach.

+++

That's not what was asked. It is used in bleach and disinfectant but in the compound calcium hypochlorite. The questioner asked "mostly found on Earth". It is not found in its elemental form in Nature because it is a very reactive, corrosive, toxic gas. Its main source on Earth is common salt (table~, rock~ or sea~), i.e. the compound Sodium Chloride.

What region is sodium mostly found in?

Sodium is mostly found in the Earth's crust and oceans. It is one of the most abundant elements on Earth and is typically found in various minerals, salts, and in seawater.


Is chlorine a alkali metal alkaline earth metal transition metal halogen or noble gas?

Chlorine is a Halogen. Along with the rest of the elements in the group. Mostly ending with ine. Bromine and Fluorine for example.


What is the most abundant and useful halogen?

* Fluorine is found on Earth at about 585 mg/kg (crust) 1.3 mg/liter (ocean) * Chlorine is found on Earth at about 145 mg/kg (crust) 19400 mg/liter (ocean) * Bromine is found on Earth at about 2.4 mg/kg (crust) 67.3 mg/liter (ocean) * Iodine is found on Earth at about 0.45 mg/kg (crust) 0.06 mg/liter (ocean) * Astatine is not found on Earth in appreciable quantities (it has no stable isotopes) Earth's crust is about 8.5 * 1020 kg Earth's ocean is about 1.4 * 1018 liters This make fluorine the most abundant halogen *on Earth*, with chlorine 30% as abundant by mass, and 16% as abundant in number of atoms. Fluorine only has one stable isotope, whereas chlorine has two. Otherwise the race would not be even that close.

Where can you find chlorine on earth?

Chlorine can be found naturally in the Earth's crust, primarily in the form of chloride salts such as sodium chloride (table salt) and potassium chloride. It is also found in seawater and in some minerals like halite and sylvite. Additionally, chlorine is produced synthetically for various industrial purposes.
