Answer 2

$\huge{\underline{\underline{\huge{\bold{QuestioN \: :-}}}}}$

A gas ‘X’ reacts with lime water and forms a compound ‘Y’ which is used as a bleaching agent in chemical industry. Identify ‘X’ and ‘Y\ Give the chemical equation of the reactions involved.

$\huge{\underline{\underline{\huge{\bold{AnsweR \: :-}}}}}$

A gas X reacts with lime water and forms a compound Y which is used as bleaching agent in the chemical industry.

X =》Cl2

Y =》Ca(OH)2.

Chlorine gas react with lime water to form Calcium Oxychloride that is bleaching powder.

2Ca(OH)2 + 2Cl2 =》 Ca(OCl)2 + CaCl2 + 2H2O.
