Chlorite refers to a group of about ten different metals. Many times chlorate combines with other elements to produce a third substance. For example when it combines with sodium it forms sodium chlorite. Sodium chlorate is use to strip or bleach paper, pulp or textiles.
Sodium chlorite and chlorine dioxide are different chemicals with distinct properties and uses. Sodium chlorite is a salt compound, while chlorine dioxide is a gas. Sodium chlorite is mainly used for water treatment and as a bleaching agent, while chlorine dioxide is used as a disinfectant and in the production of paper and textiles. In terms of properties, sodium chlorite is a solid at room temperature, while chlorine dioxide is a gas with a strong odor.
Te chemical formula for sodium chlorite is NaClO2.
The chemical formula for lead IV chlorite is Pb(ClO2)4. Lead IV chlorite is a compound containing lead with a +4 oxidation state and chlorite ions (ClO2-).
