Best Answer

yes chlorine is mare dense than air because a liquid is much more denser than air

right ok for a start chlorine is a gas so don't get confused with chlorine dissolved in water and secondly you are correct it is denser than air as a gas because it has stronger forces between molecules because it is more electronegative than nitrogen and oxygen that make up 99 percent or air

if you are wondering how then in chlorofluorocarbons or (CFC'S) reach the stratosphere it is because the wind carries them up even though they are in fact denser than air and the weight causing gravity is nothing compared to the power of the wind.
