How chlorine not poisonous in water?
It's still poisonous, but when diluted with water, such as in the form of the sodium hypochlorite(bleach) / calcium hypochlorite solution used in swimming pools, the concentration becomes so low that it relatively harmless, yet still a powerful disinfectant. These solutions are still dangerous of heated, because chlorine fumes are likely to be produced. This is why in kitchens where bleach is used to sanitize dishes and surfaces, the solution containing bleach must be made using cold water.

Does cold water deactivate the chemicals in bleach?
No. Water cannot "deactivate" bleach. Water simply dilutes the concentration of the bleach molecules, which slows the bleaching action. However, the action continues so long as the bleach remains in a liquid state. To "deactivate" or neutralize bleach, you must use a neutralizing solution, such as sodium thiosulfate. There is a commercial product called Bleach Stop that will do the job.
