state two methods that can be used to prepare chlorine from rock salt. write an equation in each case

electrolysis of brine

Explanation:

Rock salt deposits are usually mined; occasionally water is pumped down, and brine which contain 25 percent of sodium chloride is found

so d brine is electrolyzed to produce chlorine

the density(ratio between mass and volume as m/v) decreases from top to bottom in periodic table group as the size increases and nuclear charge decreases. but in periods density increases from left to right as atom size decreases and nuclear charge increases.
