Does the chlorine in water turn to gas in the shower?

As you are thinking - no, it doesn't. It stays in solution in the water. If / when some water evaporates, remember that chlorine will just dry, because chlorine has chemically bonded to other minerals in the water so that it can't become a gas. That's the residue left behind (or a part of it, anyway) when the drops in your shower dry.\n\nHowever, let's just say that chlorine does turn into an gas when the water evaporates (for argument's sake). The amount of chlorine in the water is measured using PPM, or Part Per Million. Thus, the level of chlorine that is in the water is so low (just enough to kill micro organisms), that it would cause no ill health effects to either you or me.

Huh, mine smells more like aluminum!  I'm sure it has something to do with what its made of.\n\nDon't whack it too much in your room.  You don't want a girl or your mom to come in and go "why does your room smell like chlorine?"  Maybe you should keep a wet swimsuit around so you can say "it smells like that because I just went swimming".  And she'll be like "where'd you go swimming?" and you'll be like "what's with the 3rd degree?  Are you a cop?"

true\nwater is a liquid. we all know that energy increases as we increase randomness. so when any liquid is converted to gas its energy increases as its randomness increases.\n\nthis increase in energy has to be supplied from outside. so when the floor is hot it has heat energy which can be used to convert the water from liquid to gaseous state.\n\nso when u spray some water it quickly evaporates utilizing the heat energy and as the heat energy reduces the room becomes cooler.\n\nthis is applicable to only the places which do not have moisture in the air otherwise there will be no evaporation and u will feel suffocation.

You will need Chlorine gas. Due to the common ion effect the salt(Sodium Chloride) will precipitate out leaving the fresh water.\nMaterials Needed:\nChlorine gas\nSalt Water

CO2,SO2 are acidic gases.\nYes,chlorine is an acidic gas

be thankful for the chlorine!  on the door to our locker room, there is a sign that says there is like a pound of dead skin, gallons of spit, half a pound of fece matter, and all of this other yuck in the pool.  i am glad there is chlorine to clean up all that stuff.

Adding about a drop of chlorine bleach per gallon will kill bacteria. After a few hours the chlorine goes off as a gas. It is the free chlorine that kills the bacteria. The sodium hypochlorite decomposes to release the Cl2. A small amount of sodium salt is left in the water.

It is the chlorine-Water does have a very slight blue tint, but the depth in a tub is not nearly enough to see it.  If you filled your tub with very hot water, and waited a day or so, it sould turn clear, because the chlorine would evaporate out of the water.  Try it and see.

The water from the bottom is being transformed from liquid to gas and the gas bubbles to the top.  Kinda like when you're in the bathtub and fart.

Bleach is also known as sodium hypochlorite (NaClO), if I remember this correctly. Hot water can release some of the chlorine in the bleach as a gas. That's the distinct smell that bleach gives off. Cl is highly reactive and corrosive. That's the reason why we don't mix ammonia with bleach... it will release dangerous amounts of Cl gas. \n\nAnyway... that's probably why people think hot water will deactivate the bleach a bit. Since it's the Cl that will do most of the damage to microorganisms and the like while disinfecting. But the hot water isn't likely to release enough Cl to make the bleach ineffective or even to deactivate it. \n\nIf you're worried about it, it would probably be better to use warm water instead. It'll speed up the reaction enough to kill of whatever. Or you can use cold water. That's what we used in the lab DI (deionized) water at room temp. And it works just fine. \n\nAs a side note, if you really want to keep things disinfected. You can always buy 70% ethanol to wipe down all surfaces after you've cleaned it. I think it's much better than bleach as long as the surface is wipable. Just make sure you don't touch it after wiping, let it evaporate on its own.

i am not sure but every pools i've visited use chlorine and people say it kills bacteria

The guy who said no, is full of crap. You can use it, but you have to ask yourself if it's worth it. If it's one of those 8 foot long 1 foot deep jobbies, it might be better to just dump it and start again. If you go overboard on the chlorine it won't be nice to be in.\n Eventually, no matter how much you may not want to, you will HAVE to dump that water. The chlorine added will just buy you a little time is all.

If "salt" is Sodium Chloride, then you will be making Hydrogen gas (H2) and (Oxygen gas (O2) and/or Chlorine gas (Cl2)).\n\nUnless you plan on very carefully controlling the potential difference across your electrolytic cell to use just the bare minimum voltage, you are likely to make Chlorine gas at the anode instead of Oxygen.\nOxygen gas has a reduction potential of 1.23 volts, where are Chlorine gas has a reduction potential of 1.36 volts.\nThis means that if you supply just a tiny bit of extra voltage across the cell, instead of just producing Oxygen gas from the water, you will be oxidizing the Chloride ions in solution to make Chlorine gas.

Gas exiting the body- and it makes a stink!!!

"smartliketra..." is correct, those "Chlorine" tabs for pools are not really Chlorine [gas], they are usualluy Calcium Hypochlorite.\n\nCalcium Hypochlorite:  Ca(OCl)2

Absolutely!  First off, chlorine does evaporate into the air.  So long longer it sits, the less chlorine it has.  Unfortunately that also means the longer it sits, you should boil it before drinking.  At the pool that I worked at, we did a test on the water and the tap water.  Oddly enough, our county water contained a much higher PH level (more alkaline) than the pool which is around 7.6ph.

It sounds as if your skin is having a reaction to the chlorine. The balance in the pool may be off as well. Do you shower as soon as you get out of the pool? If allowed to dry Chlorine can irriate the skin..
