Chlorine bleach can degrade when exposed to sunlight or heat, leading to a loss of efficacy. Storing chlorine bleach in a cool, dark place helps maintain its potency and extend its shelf life. Additionally, exposure to sunlight or heat can increase the risk of accidental spills or chemical reactions with other substances.
No, you can (and should) NOT mix anything with chlorine, unless you are fully aware of all dangers doing things like that. At least make sure you are well protected and wearing gas-protection mask.So: Do not do it!
No. Chlorine gas (though deadly) is non-flammable. However, fumes from chlorine bleach are not chlorine gas. Chlorine gas is Cl2 and is deadly but does not exist in nature, it must be manufactured. Evaporating bleach (NaOCl) generally fumes off oxygen and leaves NaCl (salt). None of these elements are flammable.
Yes, hazmat should be called when chlorine bleach is poured in a confined space to ensure proper cleanup and ventilation of the area. Chlorine bleach can release toxic fumes when mixed with other chemicals or in poorly ventilated spaces, which can be harmful if inhaled. It is best to let trained professionals handle the cleanup to prevent any accidents or health risks.
Answer#1Because gaseous chlorine (one of the most deadly elements) is likely to be released. Chlorine is extraordinarily damaging to the lungs and can cause pulmonary (of the lungs) chemical burns, as well as swelling of the lungs and fluid accumulation in the lungs (pulmonary edema) VENTILATE!Chlorine bleach should NEVER be used by or in the proximity of someone with asthma!
Bleach keeps your clothes white by removing colors by oxidation. You can get more information about Bleach online at the Wikipedia. Once on the page, type "Bleach" into the search field at the top of the page and press enter to bring up the information.
Chlorine bleach can be a very dangerous and as such it should be treated with care. Chlorine bleach can damage the airways and can also cause damage to skin. As such one should avoid prolonged contact with the fumes of chlorine bleach and one should always wear thick rubber gloves, or other protective gloves, when using chlorine bleach.

No, the fumes from chlorine bleach are not explosive. However, mixing chlorine bleach with other household cleaners, especially those containing ammonia, can create toxic fumes that are harmful to breathe in. It is important to always use chlorine bleach in a well-ventilated area and avoid mixing it with other cleaning products.

When doing laundry, chlorine bleach is used for white clothing only. Non-chlorine bleach is used for other color-safe clothing. Chlorine bleach should always be diluted and never put directly on the clothing; it will weaken the fibers. Chlorine bleach can also be used in the home to sanitize and clean. Be sure to use only on color-safe, non-porous items, such as a toilet or bathtub. Wear gloves when using and always ventilate the room you are in. Also, avoid getting any on your clothes as even one drop will permenantly stain.
If a person is allergic to bleach they should not swim in a pool. Most pools contain chlorine, which is a form of bleach used to disinfect and sanitize water.

Standard laundry bleach works fine in a pool. You should be sure to get plain bleach, not scented. The chemical in bleach is exactly the same as the chemical in pool chlorine but is generally about half the concentration. Most bleach is 6% sodium hypochlorite while chlorine for pools is 10-12%. So generally you would use about twice as much bleach as chlorine. The amount you add must be determined using a test kit to determine your current level of chlorine. An online calculator to use to determine the amount of bleach to add is at http://www.poolcalculator.com. As an example, if you have 0 ppm chlorine now and want to raise it to 4 ppm in a 23000 gallon pool, you would need to add 196 ounces (about 1-1/2 gallons) of bleach. For more help maintaining your pool using standard products like bleach, baking soda, and borax, search on "bbb method."
If you want the water to be more than hot enough to activate the bleach, then boil the water first. Boiling bleach is not advised, because that would produce deadly chlorine gas.

Mixing vinegar and bleach creates toxic chlorine gas, which can cause respiratory problems and irritation to the eyes, throat, and lungs. This combination should never be mixed together as it can be extremely dangerous and should always be avoided.
