2. Sodium hypochlorite - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sodium_hypochlorite

   It is commonly known in a dilute aqueous solution as bleach or chlorine bleach. [4] It is the sodium salt of hypochlorous acid, consisting of sodium cations (Na +) and hypochlorite anions (− OCl, also written as OCl − and ClO −). The anhydrous compound is unstable and may decompose explosively.

3. Hypochlorous acid - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hypochlorous_acid

   One of the best-known hypochlorites is NaClO, the active ingredient in bleach. HClO is a stronger oxidant than chlorine under standard conditions. 2 HClO(aq) + 2 H + + 2 e − ⇌ Cl 2 (g) + 2 H 2 O, E = +1.63 V. HClO reacts with HCl to form chlorine: HClO + HCl → H 2 O + Cl 2. HClO reacts with ammonia to form monochloramine: NH 3 + HClO → ...

   Common examples include sodium hypochlorite (household bleach) and calcium hypochlorite (a component of bleaching powder, swimming pool "chlorine"). [1] The Cl-O distance in ClO − is 1.69 Å. [2] The name can also refer to esters of hypochlorous acid, namely organic compounds with a ClO– group covalently bound to the rest of the molecule.

   When any of these pool chemicals are used, it is very important to keep the pH of the pool in the range 7.2 to 7.8 – according to the Langelier Saturation Index, or 7.8 to 8.2 – according to the Hamilton Index; higher pH drastically reduces the sanitizing power of the chlorine due to reduced oxidation-reduction potential (ORP), while lower ...
