Is bleach a pure substance or is it a mixture?
Answer:
It is a mixture of chemicals sometimes. Pure bleach is called hypochlorite (NaOCl).
What you buy at the store has probably been watered down a good bit. Its powerful stuff.
Household bleach is a mixture made by reacting sodium hydroxide with chlorine gas. The concentration is adjusted to meet the needs for household use, but it can be made a bit stronger. The chemical name is sodium hypochlorite.
Bleach such as chlorox is a solution of sodium hypochlorite.
Solutions are mixtures.
Commercial bleach is often a dilute solution of sodium hypochlorite in water. Sodium hypochlorite alone might be considered a pure substance but in water it would likely be considered a homogenous mixture in water.
Mixture of NaClO, H2O, NaCO3 etc
