Chemists may call it ammonium chloride, but if you go to a hardware store, it's still Sal Ammoniac ("Salt of Ammon", in the plumbing section), same as it was around the turn of the millennium (not that one, the one before). Source: Tryggvi Emilsson and Timothy BrumleveĬontributor: Tryggvi Emilsson and Timothy Brumleve The sample photograph includes text exactly as it appears in the poster, which you are encouraged to buy a copy of. I chose this sample to represent its element in my Photographic Periodic Table Poster. I received this sample when Tryggvi and Timothy came to my sodium party. A fog or smoke makes things look fuzzy, while with a true colored gas, they look perfectly sharp, just colored. The difference is that in a real colored gas, there is no diffusion of the light, just attenuation. Normally when you see a "gas" that is colored, it's not really a gas but rather tiny droplets of liquid (in fog) or particles (in smoke) that make it look colored or thick. There's a very similar bulb under bromine, but its color is much, much darker. If you look closely you can see the pale green-yellow tint created by the approximately 1 atm pressure of chlorine gas in this sealed bulb. Here is the company's version (there is some variation between sets, so the pictures sometimes show different variations of the samples): Or you can see both side-by-side with bigger pictures in numerical order. You can see photographs of all the samples displayed in a periodic table format: my pictures or their pictures. I have two photographs of each sample from the set: One taken by me and one from the company. To learn more about the set you can visit my page about element collecting for a general description or the company's website which includes many photographs and pricing details. Max Whitby, the director of the company, very kindly donated a complete set to the periodic table table. The Red Green and Blue company in England sells a very nice element collection in several versions. I found this old bottle in the basement of the building where our studio is located. This was of course also why it was banned: Like DDT, once it gets into the environment, it stays. The great advantage it had was that it would last in the soil for decades, effectively protecting a house for a very long time.
Combined with sodium, chlorine makes common table salt and is thus essential to life.Ĭlick here to buy a book, photographic periodic table poster, card deck, or 3D print based on the images you see here!Ĭhlordane was a very common insecticide used to combat termite infestations. Today it mainly purifies drinking water and swimming pools.
