Yes. Chlorine gas reacts with water to give hypochlorous acid and hydrochloric acid
Cl2 + H2O -> HOCl + HCl
The hypochlorous acid is the "disinfectant" most effective at pH 5, at low pH it forms hypochlorite ions.
Remember if the water is impure the chlorine can potentially react with the impurities.

How chlorine gas reacts with cold- and dilute- Cl2?
Chlorine doesn't react with chlorine.
Do Bleach and ammonia produces Chlorine gas?
No because ammonia and chlorine gas react together, as well as ammonia and bleach. So in other words, you cannot produce a chlorine gas with something that is meant to react to it.
What happens when chlorine gas is added to water?
You end up with chlorinated water This is what ha pens with saltwater chlorinaters in saltwater pools. No, You end up with Chlorinated Water if you add Chlorine to water, but Chlorine Gas and Water react to make HOCl and HCl, both toxic. Cl2 + H2O à HCl + HOCl
Sodium metal and chlorine gas react to form what?
Salt
What can you observe when Sodium and Chlorine react?
Naturally, Sodium is a metal (solid) and chlorine is a gas, so they only react at high temperatures or pressure. When they do react, they form crystals (sodium chloride).
