What is equilibrium constant of this reaction (Not much information online)

(1/1)

SheepDevon:
Im interested in this reaction and i want to perform this experiement.OCl- +

SheepDevon:
I'm looking for websites that can show Kc of a reaction and also its enthalpy change because I'm trying to find a suitable experiment condition for this reaction.
NaOCl+NaCl+H2O ::equil:: Cl2+2NaOH
( OCl-+Cl-+H2O ::equil:: Cl2+2OH- )
I could not find any information about Kc of the reaction online, the only information I find useful is that this forward reaction is endothermic. And if you know any information about this reaction, please give me some help.
Please correct me if I made mistakes, thank you. :)

Borek:
I haven't checked, but I would start looking for the reverse reaction of dissolving Cl2 in NaOH (actually in any base).

And the enthalpy change can be estimated from the Hess' law.

Corribus:
You can find thermodynamical parameters either at the NIST webbook or CRC. The equilibrium constant can be determined from ΔG°. Note this parameter is temperature dependent.
