Many other conditions sometimes cause weakness (see Table: Some Causes and Features of Muscle Weakness). For example, electrolyte abnormalities (such as a low level of magnesium or calcium) can cause weakness that sometimes comes and goes, as well as muscle cramping and twitches.
For swimming pool chlorination, see Swimming pool sanitation. Water chlorination is the process of adding chlorine (Cl. 2) or hypochlorite to water. This method is used to kill certain bacteria and other microbes in tap water as chlorine is highly toxic. In particular, chlorination is used to prevent the spread of waterborne diseases such as cholera, dysentery, typhoid etc.
Chlorine Chemistry. Chlorine is the predominant method of disinfecting water and wastewater and has been used for almost 100 years in the United States. Chlorine can be added to water as chlorine gas, an aqueous sodium hypochlorite solution, or solid calcium hypochlorite. When chlorine is added to water in any of these forms, it creates hypochlorous acid.
