Question

The incorrect statement among the following is

  1. On exposure to air, sodium hydroxide becomes liquid and after some time it changes to white powder.
  2. During electrolysis of brine, Cl2 gas is given off at the anode and H2 gas at the cathode.
  3. Bleaching powder is used for disinfecting drinking water.
  4. Bleaching powder undergo self-decomposition to give calcium carbonate and calcium chloride.

hintHint:

Bleaching powder decomposition is a second order process.

The correct answer is: Bleaching powder undergo self-decomposition to give calcium carbonate and calcium chloride.


    • On exposure to air sodium hydroxide becomes liquid, it reacts with moisture.
    • During electrolysis of brine solution, Chlorine is produced at anode and Hydrogen in cathode.
    • Bleaching powder is used for disinfecting drinking water.
    • Bleaching powder decomposition is a second order process with respect to hypochlorite ion concentration. It doesn't decompose to calcium carbonate and calcium chloride.
