Pentachloroethane (C2HCl5), synonym refrigerant 120, is a polar, electron-attaching gas that has 98 electrons. Its electronic polarizability is 15.60 × 10−40 F m2, dipole moment is 0.92 D, and ionization potential is 11.0 eV.
Table 104.1 shows the ionization cross sections for C2HCl5 (Hudson et al., 2001). Figure 104.1 is a graphical presentation with data for ethane (C2H6) and hexachloroethane added for comparison. The larger the molecule, the larger is the ionization cross section.
