Chlorine reacts with water to form a mixture of hydrochloric acid and chloric(1) acid. The word and symbol equations are below:
Chlorine + Water -> Hydrochloric Acid + Chloric(1) Acid
Cl2 + H2O -> HCl + HOCl

∙ 12y agoYes. Chlorine reacts with water to form hydrochloric acid and hypochlorous acid.
Cl2 + H2O --> HCl + HClO.

What is the reactivity of the element chlorine?
Chlorine is highly reactive.
Which metal oxides are insoluble in water and which are soluble?
Metal oxides of high reactivity are soluble in water while those of moderate reactivity are insoluble in water.
Is chlorine soluble in water?
Yes, chlorine is soluble in water.
What is the effect of chlorine on metal?
Chlorine will easily oxidise most metals when exposed to them. Some, such as aluminium, may need to have their oxide coating removed first to show the effects of the chlorine - in this case, the reaction would be quite violent given the reactivity of both.
How does chlorine explode when mixed with water?
Chlorine doesn't explode when mixed with water. Pool water has chlorine in it. I think you meant sodium mixed with water, which does explode.
What is the reactivity of the element chlorine?
Chlorine is highly reactive.
What is chlorine's ability to react with another substance referred to as?
reactivity.
Is reactivity with chlorine a chemical or physical property?
chemical property
What is the reactivity group for chlorine?
Group one, the alkali metals
What element it is added in order to kill microorganism in water?
An easy way of killing microorganism such as bacterias, we can either used chlorine or boil the water. With chlorine, due to its high reactivity its quiet effective and with boiling water, du to high temperature the bacterias will die off.
What is the reactivity of an element?
Reactivity is a term related to the aggressiveness (or not) of an element to combine with other elements. Oxygen, Chlorine, and Fluorine are among the most aggressive.
What is coppers reactivity with water?
Copper has extremely low reactivity with water which is why it is used to make water pipes.
What NOT a physical property of matter ductility color thermal conductivity reactivity of water?
reactivity of water is a chemical property
What is different about fluorine and chlorine reactivity?
Cl2 is rather reactive but F2 is far more the most reactive element, it even reacts with high-resistant glassware (can't keep it in a bottle) and with water.
Is fluorine and chlorine noble gase?
No! Fluorine is the most "ignoble" gas, because it will bond to almost any other element, and chlorine is not far behind in its indiscriminate reactivity.
Which metal oxides are insoluble in water and which are soluble?
Metal oxides of high reactivity are soluble in water while those of moderate reactivity are insoluble in water.
What element has a similar chemical reactivity in water as K?
because the k is the reactivity of similar chemical
