What gas is released when chlorine bleach is combined with amonia?

Similar questions: gas released chlorine bleach combined amonia.

Chlorine gas The chemical formula is: 2NaOCl + 2NH3 --> 2NaONH3 + Cl2 That is, two parts of bleach and two parts of ammonia yield 2 parts (some chemical I can't name) plus 1 part of chlorine, that comes out as a gas. Chlorine gas is very, very toxic.

Chlorine gas - Cl2 When chlorine bleach and ammonia are combined, there is an exothermic reaction that creates Cl2 - Chlorine gas - VERY toxic (even in small quantities). Chlorine gas tears into your nasal passages and causes massive cellular damage. Extremely painful.

And that, kiddies, is why we never use bleach cleaners on the same surface where we've recently used ammonia cleaners. Also why you never, never mix them together to form a super cleaner. Even in a well-ventilated area you could do some serious damage to yourself and others around you.(btw, Cl2 is what's produced if the combination of bleach and ammonia is fairly even.

If the proportions aren't very even you can create other forms of gasses I don't feel comfortable mentioning on the boards, because they're even more toxic and deadly. Same lesson applies - do not mix these cleaners! ) .

Chlorine gas I sone of these Ammonia has a chemical formula of NH3, that is, one atom of nitrogen and three atoms of hydrogen. When these two compounds are combined, the following reaction takes place: 2(parts)NaOCl + 2NH3 --> 2NaONH3 + Cl2. Do you see that Cl2 on the right hand side there?

This means one part chlorine gas, made up of diatomic (two atom) molecules. It also means that the chlorine gas has been liberated from the bleach.

Depending on the mixture, it could Chlorine gas, hydrazine, or nitrogen tetra-chloride. All 3 are extremely toxic. Chlorine gas (Cl2) used to be used as a chemical warfare agent.

Hydrazine (N2H4) is a component of the rocket fuel used in the Space Shuttle maneuvering rockets. Nitrogen tetra-chloride (NCl3) is toxic, and also explosive. The last 2 are not gases, but are still very dangerous.

Nitrogen gas (N2) can also be released, but it is not harmful. You should never mix these 2 chemicals, or any household chemicals, together. They can cause burns and fires, and damage your lungs and eyes.

Prolonged exposure (if you were to pass out from the fumes) could kill you. This is not a how-to website. This is a do-no-try-this-at-home website.

" "will non chlorine bleach get mildew smell out of towels" "can I use non-chlorine bleach in a high-efficiency top loading machine.

OK, from beginning chemistry, and watching "Emergency" we know that mixing bleach and ammonia will release a toxic gas.

Will non chlorine bleach get mildew smell out of towels.

Can I use non-chlorine bleach in a high-efficiency top loading machine.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
