  2. Hypochlorous acid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hypochlorous_acid

    Hypochlorous acid is an inorganic compound with the chemical formula Cl O H, also written as HClO, HOCl, or ClHO. [2] [3] Its structure is H−O−Cl.It is an acid that forms when chlorine dissolves in water, and itself partially dissociates, forming a hypochlorite anion, ClO −.

  3. Neutralization (chemistry) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neutralization_(chemistry)

    For example, in the reaction between hydrochloric acid and sodium hydroxide the sodium and chloride ions, Na + and Cl − take no part in the reaction. The reaction is consistent with the Brønsted–Lowry definition because in reality the hydrogen ion exists as the hydronium ion, so that the neutralization reaction may be written as

  4. Electrochlorination - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrochlorination

    The simplified chemical reaction is: NaCl + H 2 O + energy → NaOCl + H 2 [citation needed] That is, energy is added to sodium chloride (table salt) in water, producing sodium hypochlorite and hydrogen gas. Because the reaction takes place in an unpartitioned cell and NaOH is present in the same solution as the Cl 2: 2 NaCl + 2 H 2 O → 2 ...

  5. Water chlorination - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Water_chlorination

    Water chlorination is the process of adding chlorine or chlorine compounds such as sodium hypochlorite to water. This method is used to kill bacteria, viruses and other microbes in water. This method is used to kill bacteria, viruses and other microbes in water.

  6. Chloralkali process - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chloralkali_process

    The most common chloralkali process involves the electrolysis of aqueous sodium chloride (a brine) in a membrane cell. A membrane, such as Nafion, Flemion or Aciplex, is used to prevent the reaction between the chlorine and hydroxide ions. Basic membrane cell used in the electrolysis of brine. At the anode (A), chloride (Cl −) is

  7. Sodium chloride - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sodium_chloride

    The pH of a sodium chloride solution remains ≈7 due to the extremely weak basicity of the Cl − ion, which is the conjugate base of the strong acid HCl. In other words, NaCl has no effect on system pH [ 32 ] in diluted solutions where the effects of ionic strength and activity coefficients are negligible.

  8. Acid salt - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acid_salt

    A salt containing reactive cations undergo hydrolysis by which they react with water molecules, causing deprotonation of the conjugate acids. For example, the acid salt ammonium chloride is the main species formed upon the half neutralization of ammonia in aqueous solution of hydrogen chloride: [2] NH 3 + HCl(aq) → [NH 4] + Cl − (aq)

  9. Hypochlorite - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hypochlorite

    Hypochlorite salts formed by the reaction between chlorine and alkali and alkaline earth metal hydroxides. The reaction is performed at close to room temperature to suppress the formation of chlorates. This process is widely used for the industrial production of sodium hypochlorite (NaClO) and calcium hypochlorite (Ca(ClO) 2).
