Sodium hypochlorite is the formula for NaClO, belong to dilute alkali salt, it clear transparent, is a kind of completely dissolved in the water can liquid. But because sodium hypochlorite liquid is not easy to far, sodium hypochlorite as low concentration of salt water or electrolytic water site preparation.
Sodium hypochlorite liquid through water or seawater electrolysis salt preparation, this equipment is called sodium hypochlorite generator. Secondly the generation of sodium chlorate through chemical equations can be expressed as follows.
NaCl + H2O-NaClO + H2 ↑
Electrode reaction:
The anode: 2Cl- - 2e → Cl2
the cathode: 2H+ + 2e → H2
Solution reaction: 2NaOH + Cl2 → NaCl + NaClO + H2O
