Chloride is the charged or ionic form of the element chlorine, it has the symbol Cl- ,it is an atom with seventeen protons, and any number of electrons besides seventeen. You may have heard some one say Sodium Chloride before? It sounds like a mouth full doesn't it? The short way to say Sodium Chloride is Salt. It's the same thing just a shorter way to say it.
Chloride is an essential mineral for humans and other animals that occurs primarily in body fluids. A small percentage of about 15% of chloride in the body is located inside cells, with the highest amounts in red blood cells. Chloride is also present in very small amounts in bones. On average, an adult human body contains approximately 115 grams of chloride, making up about 0.15 percent of total body weight. As a major electrolyte mineral of your body, chloride performs many roles. Without chloride, your body would be unable to maintain fluids in blood vessels, conduct nerve transmissions, move muscles, or maintain proper kidney function.

How do you separate lead chloride from a mixture of silver chloride and lead chloride?
Lead chloride can be separated from a mixture of silver chloride and lead chloride by adding water to the mixture. Silver chloride is insoluble in water, whereas lead chloride is soluble. Upon adding water, the silver chloride will precipitate out, leaving behind the lead chloride in solution.
Does sodium chloride contain calcium chloride?
Pure sodium chloride doesn't contain calcium chloride.
Is sodium chloride isomorphic?
Sodium chloride is isomorphic with potassium chloride.

How do you Subtract chloride from potassium chloride?
Potassium chloride is react with AgNO3 , the chloride ion subtract from potassium chloride to form silver chloride precipitate and potassium nirate. KCl + AgNO3 → KNO3 + AgCl↓
How many isomers are there for c6h13cl?
There are seven isomers for C6H13Cl: n-hexyl chloride, 2-methylpentyl chloride, 3-methylpentyl chloride, 2,2-dimethylbutyl chloride, 2,3-dimethylbutyl chloride, 2,4-dimethylbutyl chloride, and 3,3-dimethylbutyl chloride.
Can potassium chloride be prepared from zinc and hydrogen chloride?
No, reacting zinc with hydrogen chloride will yield zinc chloride and hydrogen gas. Potassium chloride can be prepared by reacting potassium with hydrogen chloride or (more safely) potassium hydroxide with hydrogen chloride.
