5. Sodium hypochlorite - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sodium_hypochlorite

   The reaction can be written as: −OCl + H+ ⇌ HOCl. Sodium hypochlorite solutions combined with acid evolve chlorine gas, particularly strongly at pH < 2, by the reactions: HOCl (aq) + Cl− + H+ ⇌ Cl2(aq) + H2O. Cl2(aq) ⇌ Cl2(g) At pH > 8, the chlorine is practically all in the form of hypochlorite anions ( OCl− ).
