Chlorine is a yellow-green gas with a strong, bleach like odour.it smells as a mix of pepper and pineapple. Phosgene is a colorless gas with a mustly odor comparable

Technology greatly affected the way in which wars were fought, especially in World War I.

This allowed men to huddle in trenches along what are called skirmish lines and throw, lob, and fire by other means weapons to cause damage while men were protected by about 4 to 5 feet deep earth.

million civilians, which World War 2 increased in figure exponentially to a 60 million to over 70 million morbidity rate.
