What is Chlorine?

What is Chlorine?

Chlorine sometimes hurt your eyes, dry your skin and etc. But that’s completely normal when you hop in the pool for a swim, Chlorine is a chemical which is most likely to be in the pool, and Chlorine is not a liquid, it’s a gas. Pure Chlorine is a poisonous chemical, it is very rare to find, the colors of pure Chlorine is originally “Yellow and mixed green” Chlorine is always put in pools because it keeps the pools fresh, and also kills bacteria. Swedish chemist Carl Wilhelm Scheele discovered pure chlorine, He didn’t know it was an elemental during that time, he thought it was a mix of elements. Scheele made pure chlorine gas by mixing hydrochloric acid and the mineral pyrolusite.  Chlorine is safe when it is combined with water or etc. Right now, Chlorine is used to purify our water to keep them bacteria-free, Now remember to have fun swimming in the pool and remember to not worry about those reactions.
