This compound is a colorless liquid with a pungent odor. It is used as an industrial solvent and is toxic to humans. Tetrachloroethylene, also known as perchloroethylene, is a colorless liquid chemical compound with a sweet odor. It is used as an industrial solvent to remove grease from metal parts, as well as in the dry cleaning of clothes. Exposure to high levels of tetrachloroethylene can cause dizziness, headaches, and nausea. Long-term exposure to tetrachloroethylene may cause liver and kidney damage.<\/p>\n<p><strong><span style=\"font-size: 18pt;\">Structure<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The formula for tetrachloroethylene is C2Cl4. The structure of tetrachloroethylene is a four-carbon chain with a pair of chlorine atoms bonded to the carbons at each end. Tetrachloroethylene is produced by the chlorination of ethylene. The chlorine atoms are added in succession, with the first chlorine atom adding to the end of the ethylene chain and the second chlorine atom adding to the middle of the chain.<\/p>\n<p><strong><span style=\"font-size: 18pt;\">Uses<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Tetrachloroethylene is used as a solvent and a degreaser. It is also used in the dry cleaning industry.
