Chlorination of Benzene

Arthur Slator and the Chlorination of Benzene

Wilhelm Ostwald had a lifelong interest in catalysis. His receipt of the 1909 Nobel Prize for Chemistry was partly a result of his contributions to this topic. Following his appointment as professor of physical chemistry at the University of Leipzig in 1887, his interest was largely maintained through research assignments. The dissertations of about one-third of his Englishspeaking students wer...

Salt Chlorination

Millions of people worldwide enjoy swimming pool activities every year. Traditionally, chlorine-containing chemicals have been used as the sanitizing agent. Some chlorine containing chemicals used include chlorine gas, sodium hypochlorite, calcium hypochlorite, lithium hypochlorite, and chlorinated isocyanurates. These chemicals enter the pool as a concentrated solution, or in the form of hypoc...

The Chlorination of Water

Chlorine is most readily available in the form of chloride of lime (bleaching powder), which can readily be obtained commercially. This, if freshly made, should contain 33 per cent, of free or active chlorine. It loses its efficacy on keeping, especially during hot weather; but this loss may be retarded by the addition of 25 per cent, of quicklime. Samples of the bleaching powder used should be...
