Question

Bleech means the same as bleaching powder ??
Answer please​

Answer 1

yes they both are same the chemical name of bleaching powder is calcium hypochlorite this compound is relatively stable and have greater available cruel chlorine than sodium hypochlorite

this will help you

Answer 2

Before finding out the answer you have must know about the method of chlor - alkali in which which we get chlorine and alkali (NaOH)

SO, the equation from the above flowchart and the chlor - alkali is:-

NaOH + Ca(OH)2 + Cl2 = Ca(OCl)2 + NaCl + H2O

So, here we have to balance the chemical equation:-

2 NaOH + Ca(OH)2 + 2 Cl2 = Ca(OCl)2 + 2 NaCl + 2 H2O

The point to notice in the flowchart and equation:-

i) Calcium oxy Chloride (CaOCl2)

ii) The chlorine gas is released in brine is used to prepare bleach

therefore, after balancing we get:-

Ca(OH)2 + Cl2 ----> CaOCl2 + H2O

and the conclusion of this is : Bleach means same as Bleaching powder because both have same same the chemical name of bleaching powder is calcium hypochlorite Ca(OCl)2
