permit gas to escape.) Also fasten a small cone of wax on the lower t,ip of the test t,ube, as shown. KNnO4, conc. HC1 (DANGER: do not use HzSO,).

THE HALOGENS

Procedure: Omit vial A . Place 5 g 1iMnO4in vial B and into it run 5 ml of conc. HC1. Stopper at once with the tube-bearing stopper.

To show: The preparation of chlorine gas from KC1Oa HC1. SKC10, 24HC1 8KC1 12Hs0 9C1. 6C10,.

c.

Materials: KC103, dil. HC1, Mp box with stopper bearing a 13 X 100 mm test tube; dry ice, acetone.

To show: The photochemical combination of chlorine with hydrogen

Procedure: Project Mp box with valve open. Put 5 g KC103 in box, then 10 ml dil. HC1. Insert stopper with test tube holding acetone-dry ice mush.

Materzals: Plastic vial about 4-111 long, 1-m diam; tray about ,5' X l l j s X 2-in.; X g ribbon, forcepi-i,GIsga-i, Hs-gas.

Observations: Cl, gas is generated; it liquefies on, and drips off of, the cold test tube in the Mp box.

Procedure: Protect the projector stage by placing a 6 X 6 X l/s-irl. sheet of Plexiglas over it. Fill the vial wit,h water, inverted in water in the t,ray. Pass pure Clz to displace half of the water in the vial, and pure Ha to displace the remainder. Project, with the lamp off. Turn on the lamp. If necessary, bring burning AIg ribbon (CARE) up to the inverted vial containing t,he Cis Hz.

Reactions of Chlorine

Chlorine g'iihis heavier than air

Materzals: A 4-02 narrow neck clear-glass square bottle of Cia gas with a 1-hole stopper bearing 1-in. length of 7 mm tubing; SD4 hlmstrip~; KI-aq, starch-aq Procedure: Project bottle of Cl? to show yellow gas. Now project C-2. Dip film strip into KI-aq, then hang in cell 1. Dip a second strip into a mixture of KI-aq starch-aq, then hang in cell 2. Project C-1 with strips hanging in it Now tilt Cls-bottle so the 6 mm tubing can be seen at the mouth of cell 2.

Observations: The chlorine gas is heavier than air (71 vs 29) and sinks into the cells. I t reacts with KI to liberate brown Is, and with KI-starch to give blue color. The progress of the Cis gas as it descends into the cells is clearly followed. Reference: THOMPSON, T. G., ,J. CHEM.EUUC.,20, 377 (1943). Dem. 604-Liquefaction
