I have almost a full jug of liquid chlorine that I bought from a pool store. I bought it October 2022 (6 months old). Should I use it? Or dispose?

If dispose, how do I do that?
 
Won't hurt to use it. At worst, if it's totally degraded, you'll just be pouring salt water into your pool.

Assume that the chlorine is still full strength and use PoolMath to calculate how much to add. Add it and then test FC an hour later. Comparing your test result to your expected FC will tell you how potent the chlorine actually is.
