Preparation of Chlorine Gas from Bleach

Demonstration The evolution of chlorine gas was rapid
in the presence of acid
Chlorine gas was unable to be collected “over water” like oxygen gas since chlorine gas will react with water
Chlorine reacted with the red dye in the paper, bleaching it to a lighter color

Purpose
To prepare chlorine gas
To collect chlorine gas by upward displacement of air
To demonstrate the presence of chlorine gas

2. Redox Reactions
3. Oxidizing Agents

1. Bleach Commercial laundry bleach is a solution of
sodium hypochlorite in water
NaClO(s)
When dissolved in water the sodium hypochlorite dissociates into hydrated sodium and hydrated chlorite ions
The hypochlorite ion is responsible for laundry
bleaching: it gobbles up electrons
water Na+(aq) + ClO-(aq)

2. Redox Reactions
In a redox reaction, one substance loses electrons while another substance gains electrons
“Redox” is a conventional term which is a combination of the words “reduction” AND “oxidation”
The substance that loses electrons is said to be oxidized and/or the reducing agent
The substance that gains electrons is said to be reduced and/or the oxidizing agent

3. Oxidizing Agents Oxidizing agents have many uses
bleaches: hypochlorite batteries: zinc and sulfuric acid antiseptics: hydrogen peroxide
Oxidizing agents work by gaining electrons from other substances
and/or
donating oxygen to othersubstances

Conclusions When hypochlorite bleaches
something, its chlorine atoms are being reduced to chloride ions
The hypochlorite in bleach can be rapidly decomposed in the presence of an acid
Chlorine gas is the product of the decomposition of hypochlorite ion

Comments Redox reactions are extremely common
chemical reactions photography germicides hair bleaching batteries biochemical reactions
In bleaching, the bleach is an oxidizing agent and the stain is a reducing agent
