What happen when bleaching powder is exposed to air?
  • 1 answers

Bleaching powder is a yellowish white powder with a strong smell of chlorine. When exposed to air, bleaching powder gives a smell of chlorine. This is because bleaching powder reacts with carbon dioxide from the atmosphere to produce calcium carbonate and chlorine gas.

  CaOCl2 + CO2 → CaCO3 + Cl2
