Cl2
Choline is a caustic poisonous gas of a green color, which is only encountered in nature in a gaseous state in compounds with other gases. It has a sweet smell and weighs more than air. It does not burn in a normal state, but at increased temperature, chlorine reacts with hydrogen, which may cause an explosion and the release of phosgene gas. Chlorine is very poisonous, and even a low concentration of it in the air can be fatal.

Caution: Chlorine has a high electronegativity and a high electron affinity, the latter being even slightly higher than that of fluorine. The affinity of chlorine for hydrogen is so great that the reaction proceeds with explosive violence in light.
Aditional Information
Cl2 Poisoning
Chlorine is a greenish yellow gas at room temperature and atmospheric pressure. It is two and a half times heavier than air. It becomes a liquid at −34 °C (−29 °F). It has a choking smell, and inhalation causes suffocation, constriction of the chest, tightness in the throat, and—after severe exposure -edema- (filling with fluid) of the lungs. As little as one part per thousand in air causes death within a few minutes, but less than one part per million may be tolerated.
Note: Due Sensors are factory calibrated and cetification is 24 months valid once the calibration process is performed, we don't have a stock, we can sell you any sensor only as required.
