Bleach water, or a bleach solution, is a mixture of bleach and water that can be used for cleaning, disinfecting, and other purposes:
It is commonly referred to as bleach because it is the active ingredient in bleach. Its chemical formula is NaClO, composed of one sodium (Na) atom, one chlorine (Cl) atom and one oxygen (O) atom. Its chemical structure shows that the hypochlorite ion (ClO-) has an ionic bond with the sodium (Na+) ion.
Cleaning: Bleach water can be used to clean surfaces, remove stains, and whiten clothes.
Disinfecting: Bleach water can be used to kill germs and remove bacteria and mildew. You can make a bleach solution by mixing 5 tablespoons of bleach per gallon of room temperature water.
Disinfecting drinking water: You can use bleach to disinfect drinking water.
Here are some tips for using bleach water:
Safety: Always dilute bleach with water before using it. You should also wear gloves and eye protection, and keep bleach out of reach of children and pets.
Mixing: You can make a bleach solution with different amounts of bleach to create a high, intermediate, or low-level disinfectant.
Application: Leave the bleach solution on the surface for at least one minute before removing or wiping.
Washing: Wash your hands after cleaning or disinfecting.
Freshness: Make a new diluted bleach solution daily.
Fumes: Never mix bleach with other cleaning products, as this can create harmful fumes.
