    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chlorine-releasing_compounds

    For example, the label of a household bleach product may specify "5% sodium hypochlorite by weight." That would mean that 1 kilogram of the product contains 0.05 × 1000 g = 50 g of NaClO. A typical oxidation reaction is the conversion of iodide I − to elemental iodine I 2. The relevant reactions are NaClO + 2 H + + 2 I − → NaCl + H 2 O ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bleach_activator

    Bleach activators are compounds that allow a lower washing temperature than would be required otherwise to achieve the full activity of bleaching agents in the wash liquor. Bleaching agents, usually peroxides, are usually sufficiently active only from 60 °C on. With bleach activators, this activity can already be achieved at lower temperatures.

    [47] [48] It may be made by diluting household bleach as appropriate (normally 1 part bleach to 9 parts water). [49] Such solutions have been demonstrated to inactivate both C. difficile [47] and HPV. [50] "Weak chlorine solution" is a 0.05% solution of hypochlorite used for washing hands, but is normally prepared with calcium hypochlorite ...
