"We found that chloride ions present in the water enhanced the process by forming reactive molecular chlorine," Kong explained. "Our work provides a comprehensive assessment of using UV/chlorine ...

Hydrogen chloride (HCl) is an important by-product of the chemical industry—and can be electrolyzed to generate hydrogen and chlorine. Chlorine is one of the most important base chemicals ...

A little water helps expose the sodium so it can react with the chlorine gas. The reaction releases a lot of heat as the ionic compound sodium chloride is formed. A sodium and chlorine atom are near ...
