Chemical Effects Of Chlorine Oxide

Chlorofluorocarbon (CFC)-containing inhalers, or CFC propellants, were commonly used in US inhalers prescribed to treat asthma and COPD (Hendeles, Colice, & Meyer, 2007, p. 1344).   However, CFC is an organic compound that accumulates in the stratosphere (Hendeles, Colice, & Meyer, 2007, p. 1344). CFC causes deleterious effects on the atmosphere and thus reduces the protective effects the stratosphere has in minimizing ultraviolet B radiation (Hendeles, Colice, & Meyer, 2007, p. 1344).  “The World Health Organization estimated that a 10% decrease in stratospheric ozone levels would lead to an additional 300,000 non-melanomas and 4500 melanoma skin cancers worldwide annually” (Hendeles, Colice, & Meyer, 2007, p. 1344).

The radical chlorination of chlorobutane is performed using AIBN and sulfuryl chloride. The purpose in doing this is so that the 4 different products yielded could be observed and analyzed. The four products produced are, 1,1-dichlorobutane, 1,2-dichlorobutane, 1,3-dichlorobutane, and 1,4-dichlorobutane. For each product the chlorine adds in a different location relative to the original chlorine. This is due to a number of reasons, including the degree of carbon substitution and proximity to the chloro substituent.. The goal with this in the experiment was to find out why each product is given in different yields. Experimentally, to determine the effect of the chloro substituent on the reactivity per hydrogen, a gas

Backtrack to April 22, 1915. Halfway around the world in Ypres, Belgium, German forces surprise two French Colonial divisions by unleashing nearly 150 tons of pure fatal chlorine gas. Because they had never been exposed to chemical warfare on a scale like this; The French forces had no protection against this deadly toxin. This lack of preparation sent front line troops into a panic. Nearly 6,000 troops were killed because of the deadly gas. These soldiers did not die peacefully, as they choked and burned to death as if they were parasites. The Germans, who bombarded “No man’s land” and the front line trenches with the chlorine gas were equally as surprised with the devastation the unbeatable gas left. Long story short, although German forces had a major advantage with this toxic new weapon; they failed to come out of the Second Battle of Ypres with a victory. Shortly after worldwide mass production of gas masks were being put into effect for the war. This first use of chemical warfare changed the entire

Polychlorinated Biphenyl or PCBs is a chlorine based organic compound with the formula of C12H10−xCLx . Polychlorinated biphenyls was used in many different things such as coolants, lubricants for transformers, and other electrical equipment. The production of polychlorinated biphenyls is stopped all together in the united states in the year of 1977 by the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). The EPA did this due to the buildup of polychlorinated biphenyls found in the environment.

From the beginning of the spraying 51 years ago, and even today, millions of Vietnamese have died from, or been completely incapacitated by, diseases which the US government recognizes are related to Agent Orange, according to Truth-out.org. Many people refuse to believe that Agent Orange had any bad or harmful effect on the environment and on people. In my opinion, Agent Orange was a very deadly toxin, has had a very big and negative impact on both the environment in Vietnam and other countries around the world, and it has had a big and negative impact on people by causing diseases and disorders.

Chlorine has 17 protons, 18 neutrons, and 17 electrons. It's atomic number is 17 and the atomic mass is 35.45. Its symbol on the periodic table is Cl.

With a large amount of confusion surrounding the public, religions began to voice their opinions. Some religious views were supported by the media, whereas medical support was varied but limited as many felt that chloroform was unethical (Church History, 2006). The Church of England preached against the use of chloroform relating to the bible “God caused a deep sleep to fall upon Adam… he took one of his ribs and closed up the flesh”, Simpson challenged this as it shows the first surgical operation on humans (Robinson, 1996). Simpson discovered that during labour a women can experience anxiety and dread towards birth but with chloroform those feelings disappear (Poovey, 1986). A journalist for New Vision tested securities around chloroform

In the post 9/11 era of America, terrorism has become an unfortunate part of life. Since that day, America has seen six different attacks that have been aspired by Islamic extremism. From the anthrax attack in late 2001 to the San Bernardino attack in 2015 the increased violence has only become more frequent and more difficult to predict (Ilich, 2016). This includes the most recent example or Islamic extremism that occurred in Orland, FL at Pule night club when 29 year old Omar Mateen opened fire on unsuspecting victim claiming the lives of 49 and wounding an additional 53 (Ilich, 2016). The Boston bombing was the first time since the anthrax attacks that terrorism involved more than just a firearm (Ilich, 2016). The evolution of attacks makes since to move on from simple weapons to chemical attacks. The threat of chlorine attacks has to be considered with the ever growing use of it in Iraq and Syria. This discussion will look at the history of chlorine as a weapon. Then review current uses of chlorine as a weapon by Islamic extremist. Afterwards, theoretically look at how a chlorine weapon should be used in the United States, specifically Las Vegas. Then finish with how to prevent that attack.

OSHA adopts a standard to protect staff who are might be exposed to methylene chloride, a substance generally utilized as a part of industrial procedures, including paint stripping, pharmaceutical assembling and metal cleaning and degreasing. Exposure to methylene chloride favors the existence of tumor; affects the heart and causes skin and eye irritation.

Another kind of incident that occurred before when Ken should've done something when he had the chance was when David sniffed chloroform. This substance, chloroform, was known as a very dangerous substance to have around your house. A chloroform is a, “primitive anesthetic commonly used during surgery in the mid-18002”(silverstein 17). Chloroform was initially used to make people sleep so they wouldn’t feel the pain of surgeries. It could be dangerous if you sniff it a lot. But David didn't care about that. Reading his favorite book, the golden book, it, “urged readers to sniff carefully…David took the challenge, but apparently sniffed too vigorously and ended up flat on his back. He estimated he was out for more than an hour”(Silverstein 17).

Chloramines are disinfectants used to treat drinking water. Chloramines are intended to quickly kill most bacteria, viruses, etc, but we are now using chloramines as a matter of convenience, there are far safer alternatives.

The way chlorine kills the bacteria is because chlorine splits into different chemicals like HOCI (Hypochlorous acid) and OCI (Hypochlorite ion). HOCI and OCI both dissolve in water. These two chemicals kills bacteria and they do that by attacking the lipids in the cell. HOCI is able to oxidise (loss of electrons) organisms in seconds and OCI is able to oxidise (loss of electrons) organisms in about 30 minutes. This means that chlorine kills bacteria straight away because of the HOCI but then the OCI kills bacteria later for example people who go into the swimming later. Also chlorine does not harm us humans but maybe you get some dry skin or hair. This is really effective because HOCI and OCI in the chlorine kills bacteria which can make

1- To examine the possibility of Dichlorvos being persistent and undergoing long range transport across the globe , several physical properties were brought into perspective to make these conclusions. The vapor pressure for dichlorvos was found to be 0.012 mm Hg (1.6 x 10-3 kPa) at 20 °C.(1) (2) The vapour pressure tells us that Dichlorvos is volatile thus increasing the possibility of it being a global pollutant. The Octanol water partition coeffcient (log P) was found to be 1.47.(3) The half-life of dichlorvos in water varies between 20 to 80 hours at pH between 4-9 .(4) (5) Dichlorvos doesn’t accumulate in animals or plants, and almost all of the Dichlorvos applied in greenhouses and food storage areas is broken down in 3 to 6 hours.

The third gas is nitrous oxide.  Nitrous oxide has pretty much the same effect on the ozone as the chloroflourocarbons, but nitrous oxide only destroys about one-forth of what the chloroflourocarbons destroy.

The ozone is a gas in the atmosphere that protects all living things on Earth from damaging ultraviolet rays that come from the sun. With the ozone layer depleting, it would be difficult for anything to survive much longer or not at all. The ozone acts as a shield to protect living things from absorbing the ultraviolet ray and keeps them from being damaged. Many man-made materials are causing the ozone layer to deplete at a faster rate. The author states, “Emissions of chlorine and bromine from CFCs and halons are to blame for excessive stratospheric ozone depletion” (Ivanovich and Calm). This type of emission is going into the atmosphere and is breaking down the ozone layer. Consequently, this is resulting in the
