Answer:
Chlorine is a halogen and its atomic number is 17. Naturally, chlorine exists as a diatomic molecule.
We know that the atomic mass of chlorine is 35.5 g/mole.
We have also discussed above that chlorine exists as a diatomic molecule.
Therefore, its molecular mass is twice its atomic mass.
So the mass of 1 molecule of chlorine will be 35.5×2 g/mole = 71 g/mole.
