| | Showering or bathing in chlorinated tap water -- danger |
 | | Chlorine is harmful to you when you drink it and when it is absorbed into our skin and inhaled into your lungs when you shower. | | | Chlorine is not only absorbed through the skin, but also re-vaporized in the shower, inhaled into the lungs, and transferred directly into the blood system. | | | For people who are concerned about their health and are willing to take the responsibility to do something about it, the Sprite Shower Filter is an affordable solution to the problem. |

| | Higher levels of chlorine have resulted in the following effects in humans: 1 to 3 ppm: mild mucous membrane irritation; 30 ppm: chest pain, vomiting, dypsnea, cough; 46 to 60 ppm: toxic pneumonitis and pulmonary edema; 430 ppm: lethal after 30 minutes; 1,000 ppm: fatal within a few minutes. | | | Limited information is available on the chronic effects of chlorine in humans. | | | Acute (short-term) exposure to high levels (>30 ppm) of chlorine in humans results in chest pain, vomiting, toxic pneumonitis, pulmonary edema, and death. |

| | Chlorinated hydrocarbons have been used extensively as pesticides; some examples are DDT DDT or 2,2-bis(p-chlorophenyl)-1,1,1,-trichloroethane, chlorinated hydrocarbon compound used as an insecticide. | | | Disinfectants, or germicides, are sometimes considered to be substances applied to inanimate bodies, whereas antiseptics, not so potent, are agents that kill microbes on living things. | | | Because of its activity chlorine does not occur uncombined in nature, but its compounds are numerous and abundant. |

Murium was never found, but Humphrey Davy recognized it's elemental quality in 1810. | | | A green, highly reactive gas, chlorine is the most abundant halogen, comprising nearly two percent of the seas and used in all of our laboratory classes. | | | Click mass number for decay process, product for element page. |
