The newfound gas, hydrogen chloride, which is the first halogen gas found in the Martian atmosphere, seems to be linked to seasonal changes, but the discovery ultimately raises more questions than ...

When burned, vinyl chloride gives off hydrogen chloride and the toxic gas phosphene, which was used as a weapon during World War I. Vinyl chloride in the atmosphere breaks down into hydrochloric ...

ESA believes that salts such as sodium chloride can be lifted into the atmosphere by Martian winds and dust storms, where they then react with atmospheric water to release chlorine. This then reacts ...

As of Feb. 13, the Ohio Environmental Protection Agency discontinued air monitoring for hydrogen chloride, saying the threat of vinyl chloride fire-producing hydrogen chloride “no longer exists.” ...

Also, the high yield of released chlorine atoms from chlorides can account for the high concentrations of hydrogen chloride observed in the Martian atmosphere during the 2018 and 2019 dust seasons ...

But, in the hours following, no chemical contaminants of concern, like phosgene, hydrogen chloride and VOCs, were detected. The Air Quality Index (AQI) measures particulate matter and ozone in the ...

If it did form and fall, it would have most likely occurred downwind of East Palestine. Vinyl chloride in the atmosphere breaks down into hydrochloric acid, a component of acid rain.

Furthermore, the observations detected hydrogen cyanide and acetylene in the atmosphere of WISE-0458. The astronomers explained that both species are indicators of disequilibrium chemistry, and ...
