When sodium hypochlorite is added in water it simply ionizes into Na+ and ClO-, if these ions react with water the products should be NaOH and HClO , but they again react as acid base and form the same ions in water.

How much chlorine do you need to treat 1800 gallons of river water to kill any bacteria?

Per 1000gallons of water: 5.25% Sodium Hypo-chlorite (liquid chlorine) 1 gallon 10% Sodium Hypo-chlorite (liquid chlorine) 64 oz 70% Calcium Hypo-chlorite (dry chlorine) 64oz This treatment of water is to bring the chlorine concentration to minimum of 4.0ppm. This level is generally considered adequate to kill existing bacteria with the probability that a certain amount of the chlorine will be absorbed by the TDS total dissolved solids present in the water. The 'residual' reading after 24hrs of contact time should be a minimum of 2.0ppm to be considered effective. Though Chlorine will kill bacteria, it is critical that you understand it will NOT Sanitize the water: meaning, that it has little or no effect on protazoa or viruses present in river water and that the water cannot be considered potable (safe for human consumption).

What is the difference between chlorine and Sodium Hypo Chlorite?

Chlorine and sodium hypochlorite are used as bio cides to control the marine growth in water systems. Usually chlorine in gaseous form is injected into the sea water intake system to achieve the above requirement. Chlorine is toxic and poses a health hazard and difficult to handle. So sodium hypochlorite has been introduced. Sodium hypochlorite is a unstable compound and it dissociates into sodium hydroxide and releases chlorine to do its action of bio cide function. Changeover from free chlorine injection to sodium hypochlorite injection is common these days. However the impact of sodium hypochlorite in metallurgy of existing sea water systems is to be examined.
