Where does chlorine naturally occur?
Chlorine gas does not occur naturally as it is too reactive. Chloride salts occur naturally. The most common is sodium chloride, NaCl. Chlorine, Cl2, is obtained by electrolysing molten NaCl.
Is sodium hydroxide obtained from rock salt?
Sodium hydroxide is obtained from salt, yes. The manufacture of this strong base is accomplished mainly from what is termed the chloralkali process. This is the electrolysis of a salt solution which produces sodium hydroxide and also chlorine and hydrogen gas. It is an industrial process that is important to the chemical industry. A link follows.
What is free chlorine in a pool?
Free Chlorine is the Chlorine which is free to do its work in the pool, as opposed to Combined Chlorine which is chlorine that has combined with contaminants and is tied up and ineffective as a sanitizer in the pool. Sometimes you will see it abbreviated as FAC, which stands for Free Available Chlorine.

How is bromine obtaines from nature?
Bromine is obtained by oxidising naturally occuring bromides with chlorine gas. This approach exploits the fact that chlorine is more reactive than bromine.
