Chlorine is a chemical element with symbol Cl and atomic number 17. It also has a relative atomic mass of 35.5. Chlorine is in the halogen group (17) and is the second lightest halogen following fluorine. The element is a yellow-green gas under standard conditions, where it forms diatomic molecules. Chlorine has the highest electron affinity and the third highest electronegativity of all the reactive elements. For this reason, chlorine is a strong oxidizing agent. Free chlorine is rare on Earth, and is usually a result of direct or indirect oxidation by oxygen.

The most common compound of chlorine, sodium chloride (common salt), has been known since ancient times. Around 1630, chlorine gas was first synthesized in a chemical reaction, but not recognized as a fundamentally important substance. Characterization of chlorine gas was made in 1774 by Carl Wilhelm Scheele, who supposed it to be an oxide of a new element. In 1809, chemists suggested that the gas might be a pure element, and this was confirmed by Sir Humphry Davy in 1810, who named it from Ancient Greek: χλωρóς (khlôros) "pale green".

Hyperview is the third studio album by American rock band Title Fight.

Background and production

In 2012, Title Fight released their second album, Floral Green, and followed it up with the 2013 EP, Spring Songs. On July 24, 2014 it was announced that Title Fight had signed to ANTI-. The band said that their "ability to choose our own path regardless of current or past status quos is a defining characteristic" of the band. With signing to ANTI-, they said that "these qualities will be strengthened and supported."

Title Fight's previous efforts were compared to the likes of Gorilla Biscuits and Lifetime. For Hyperview, the band approached it with a sound reminiscent of Shudder to Think and Slowdive. The album's sound has been described as dream pop,indie rock,post-punk, and shoegaze. Bassist Ned Russin said the group was "looking at bands like maybe Dinosaur Jr. and the Beach Boys — we were looking at the moment where they found something that had never been done before and was now being done well. We were just chasing that energy." Hints of the Hyperview sound could be heard in their previous work. Russin claimed that the album was "the most melodic, simple stuff" the band have created. According to the band, the title Hyperview, "is a state of increased vision, of acute awareness. One in which foresight is even sharper than hindsight." "Chlorine" was "a culmination of all attributes, but not limited to any particular one."

Chlorine is a 2013 American comedy-drama film directed and qritten by Jay Alaimo. Filming mainly took place in Madison, New Jersey and Wayne, New Jersey.
