Talk:Calcium hypochlorite

message: Should be merged with calcium oxy-chloride, as they are the same compound.
: This chemical is known more commonly (on HTH3 packaging, etc) as Calcium hypochlorite, infact I've never heard oxy-chloride used in a chemical sense. 208.103.65.75 (talk) 03:26, 13 June 2008 (UTC)

message: the formula seems unbalanced.
I don't know Chemistry.  But they are adding Bleaching Powder to the water in the tank from where water is supplied to all residents of this building who use the water for cooking, washing etc.
Is this safe? 
I hope somebody knowledgeable can guide.
yes it is very safe.. it is used as disinfectant... for purifying water   — Preceding unsigned comment added by 124.253.234.239 (talk) 11:14, 9 July 2018 (UTC)
thread_title:  Calcium hypochlorite reacts with hydrochloric acid to form calcium chloride  

message: The "Chlorine Bombs" section should be refined to show more chemistry, as it's a good way to get teenagers excited about that kind of stuff, and it's not too dangerous as it's pretty much in it's own world of explosives. More importantly, make sure that you caution it's exothermic properties, while the reaction is going on, it's not unheard of for things with a low flash point to ignite. 208.103.65.75 (talk) 03:26, 13 June 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: This section looks like an incitation to make bombs at home with household products. Is it Wikipedia's role to excite people in such a fashion? This encyclopedia ought to be neutral and not to "get teenagers excited". This article is explaining things that ARE potentially dangerous. Some people got killed by mixing bleach and acid. To boot, what should we think of the last sentence? Basically, one get to know how to make a bomb that can injure even more! "Hey guys, use glass, not plastic!" Pathetic! 150.237.47.38 (talk) 11:44, 31 October 2008 (UTC)
thread_title:  Chlorine Bombs section 

message: Removed this:
The sodium process proceeds as follows:
:2  + 3  + 2 NaOH →   +  + 2  + 2 NaCl
Makes no sense, reaction not balanced.Sf5xeplus (talk) 02:46, 27 June 2010 (UTC)

message: I removed the redundant Ca(OH)2, I don't have the book but as a powder there is no liquid left, so by H2O do you mean crystal of hydration? Do companies not react all the Ca(OH)2?  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 124.169.159.169 (talk) 05:52, 16 September 2010 (UTC)
thread_title:  Hmm 

message: This seems to be the main WP article about household chlorine bleach powder. As such, it is extremely disappointing -- hardly even a stub  -- just a little basic chemistry and industrial uses... This has been a basic consumer product for at least a century. It should have photos of such products. Who invented it, what is the history of the first uses and brands? What are typical hazards as experienced by consumers, how many of what injuries annually? -71.174.183.177 (talk) 20:34, 13 February 2015 (UTC)

thread_title:  household bleach powder 

message: I know nothing about chemistry, but in the section entitled Sanition, there appears this sentence: "As a swimming pool chemical, it is blended with other chemicals less on than other forms of chlorine, due to dangerous reactions with some common pool chemicals." I was wondering if "less on" should actually be "less often"?  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2602:306:B8F3:50E0:A59C:B9D0:ACB4:AFE4 (talk) 02:24, 21 March 2020 (UTC)
