Answer:
Chemical properties of chlorine are discussed below !!
Explanation:
- It breaks up in water to give a firmly smelling, yellow arrangement- chlorine water. It loses its yellow color when it remains in the daylight. This is because of the arrangement of a blend of hydrochloric acid and hypochlorous acid.
- Hypochlorous acid, being unsteady, breaks down and releases nascent oxygen. The oxygen so shaped is in charge of the bleaching and oxidizing properties of chlorine.
- It joins particularly with all non-metals except nitrogen, carbon, and oxygen. It reacts very fast with most of the metals. This reaction results in the formation of chlorides.
- It has an extraordinary liking for hydrogen. It reacts with hydrogen in the presence of light with a blast to form hydrochloric acid.
- Chorine breaks down a few hydrogen compounds to shape hydrochloric acid.
- It is a decent oxidizing agent; it oxidizes ferrous to ferric, sulfur dioxide to sulphuric acid, sulfites to sulfates, and iodine to iodic acid.
- Moist chlorine, because of the release of nascent oxygen, goes about as a very powerful bleaching agent. It fades organic matter or vegetables.
- It reacts with unsaturated hydrocarbons to give addition products and substitution products with saturated hydrocarbons.
