Chlorine has a melting point of -100,98 deg C and a boiling point of -34,6 deg C, so I
don't think anyone is going to have any problems of chlorine crystals on their
assemblies, unless the water they use is very, very, very hard indeed :-) Chlorine gas
in water has a solubility of about 10 g/l, depending on temperature, but municipal
water is very much lower than this. When the water dries off, so does the chlorine.
Now, if you are talking about anionic chloride ions. that is a horse of a different
colour, even in Texas, but now we are discussing salts, not dissolved gases, forming
part of the total dissolved solids. Let's try not to introduce red herrings into the
debate.
