I'm given a task to do the analysis for liquid chlorine. However, the i'm confused with the reactions involved. The liquid chlorine is flow through
the hydrochloric acid then distillation is being held to test the ammonia content. is anyone know about this and could give me some advise??

There are papers in <strong><a href="forumdisplay.php?fid=21">References</a></strong> which might help you. If you have
journal access, I've appended citations to this post.
Also, here is a search for previous discussion of <a
href="search.php?token=&srchtxt=nitrogen+trichloride&srchfield=body&srchuname=&f%5B%5D=3&srchfrom=0&searchsubmit=Search">"n
itrogen trichloride"</a> on his forum. Hope this helps.

Thanks bfesser.
I couldn't access to read the journal. Perhaps, do you know which country actually do the liquid chlorine gas analysis? From the information i get,
country like india, thailand, etc, they actually don't carry out the analysis for liquid chlorine as it is very dangerous. is it true?
