Answer:
Chlorine bleaches organic colouring matter in the presence of moisture. The bleaching action of moist chlorine is due to its strong oxidising action, by oxidation. It forms hypochlorous acid with water, that liberates nascent oxygen. This oxygen reacts with the dye forming a colourless compound
