1 Answer

Answer :

(1) Chlorine over slaked lime Explanation: Calcium hypochlorite (bleaching powder) is manufactured by the calcium process: 2Cl2 + 2Ca(OH)2 (slaked lime) Ca(OCl)2 + CaCl2 + 2H2O. Bleaching powder is actually a mixture of calcium hypochlorite and the basic chloride with some slaked lime.
