Today was the big class trip and
Cloe was very excited. Her
and her class were being
taken to Wacko’s Wacky Water
park. They weren’t only going
for fun but they were going to
learn about Chlorine and it’s
works. Cloe could barely sit
still on the ride to school and
couldn’t wait to get to the water
park. When they got to school
the Class put all their
belongings to the side and
took a seat at their desks.
“Before we go on the bus I’m
going to give you a brief history
on chlorine class.” Said Mrs.
Foster.
 “Awe do we have to ?” Whined
Richard
“If you want to attend this trip, yes
you have to.” Mrs. Foster
replied. “Everyone take out a
sheet of paper and a writing
utensil and take notes.” The
class all whined. “Chlorine is a
yellowish, greenish gas. It has
an atomic mass of 35.45
amu. and 17 is it’s atomic
number. On the periodic
table it is the group of
halogens.” Cloe raised her
hand. “Yes Cloe ?”
“Mrs. Foster who found chlorine?”
“Chlorine was founded in 1774 by
Carl W. Scheele.
Scheele could not claim it as an
element yet. So in 1810 Sir
Humphrey Davy named it and
insisted it was an element.
Now does anyone have it
anymore questions before we
go?” Half of the class raised
their hand. Mrs. Foster called
on Jake.
“ Doesn’t all elements have
negative and positive charges?
“
“That’s right Jake. Elements all
have protons, neutrons, and
electrons. The number of
protons and electrons are
equal.”
“Well how many does chlorine
have?” asked Cloe. She was
beginning to get more
interested in this stuff called
chlorine.
“ Chlorine has 18
electrons/protons. All elements
also have a different number of
neutrons to help stabilize the
nucleus. Chlorine has 18 of
them.
“Mrs. Foster, when are we leaving?”
asked Sean. Mrs. Foster looked out
the window and notice the bus sitting
there.
“Okay Class grab all your belongings,
time to go.” The Class was ecstatic
and hurried out the door. On the bus
ride Mrs. Foster filled the class in on
more about chlorine.
“Chlorine has the symbol Cl on the
periodic table.
“ Is chlorine only found in water “
Sarah asked strangely.
“ That was a good question Sarah.
Chlorine is very common in nature
and is needed in most forms of life
including us humans. In nature
chlorine is normally found as a
chloride ion. 1.9% of our seawaters
mass contains chloride ions“
 By the end of that sentence the
bus came to a stop.
“ We have arrived class.” They all
hurried of the bus and couldn’t
wait to get inside. As the class
walked in they smelt a strong
smell.
“What’s that nasty smell?”
Michelle said holding her nose.
“Ah , Michelle that you smell is
chlorine it tends to have a
strong distinctive smell. “ The
class dropped their belongings
and went to get on the rides.
Cloe stayed behind to ask
more find out more because
she was curious.
“ Mrs.Foster can you tell me some
more facts. “ Cloe asked.
“ Sure Cloe , chlorine can come
together with other elements to
form compounds. Some
compounds include chlorine
dioxide (ClO2) which is used
for making drinking water
clean and a common one is
sodium chloride or salt (NaCl).”
“How does chlorine look ?” asked
Cloe.
“Chlorine is a gas and its
yellowish – green.” Mrs. Foster
replied.
“What can chlorine be used for?”
