Carbon tetrachloride, or CCl4, is a molecule with four chloride atoms and a central carbon atom. It has a tetrahedral molecular shape. It is a clear liquid with a sweet odor and readily evaporates. In the past, carbon tetrachloride was used as a pesticide and cleaning agent. It was also used in fire extinguishers and in producing refrigerants and aerosols. Because carbon tetrachloride has been found to affect the ozone layer of the atmosphere, its usage is declining.
