Answer:

Chlorine can act as a bleaching agent due to the nascent oxygen it can produce in the reaction with water. Basically, one Cl atom gets oxidised and the other gets reduced when chlorine gas reacts with water. Complete answer: ... Nascent oxygen is a very powerful oxidising agent because it is very unstable.
