Title: Hypochlorite (ClO-)
Post by: Sabrinny on April 30, 2005, 12:59:56 AM

Hi, do you have any suggestions on where to look to get some information about the mass percentage of ClO^- in name brand bleaches and and local store bleaches?

I'm not sure of sources, but if memory serves me right household bleaches contain 5% sodium hypochlorite.  So from that information you should be able to calculate the mass % of the hypochlorite ion itself.

I will try bottle labels first. But it may be a false idea.
