5. Chlorine: Chlorine belongs to group VII A. Members of this group are called halogens which means ‘salt producers’. Chlorine has seven electrons in its outer most shell and so has a valency of 1. Chlorine is prepared by the oxidation of concentrated hydrochloric acid using oxidising agents like manganese dioxide, lead dioxide, trilead tetra oxide, potassium permanganate and potassium dichromate. Chlorine is a non combustible gas but supports the burning of certain metals and nonmetals. Chlorine is highly reactive. It reacts with hydrogen, other non metals and metals to form the corresponding chlorides. Chlorine being an acidic gas turns moist blue litmus paper to red and then bleaches it.
