Welcome back Aspiring Chemists.

In this video, we dive into the fascinating world of chemistry as we explore the process of making bleach at home. We'll discuss the chemical reactions involved, the materials needed, and the safety precautions you must take. Whether you're a chemistry enthusiast or just curious about household chemicals, this experiment will provide valuable insights into the chemistry of cleaning agents. Remember to always prioritize safety and follow proper guidelines when handling chemicals!

To make this household cleaning agent without incuring any COST the materials you would need are
-Water
-Kitchen salt(NaCl)
-An electric output
The procedure is really simple and it involves the science of electrolysis. This set up is very similar to my video about HCl and NaOH    • Make HCl and NaOH at home with salt -...  
Check it out and compare by yourself.

NOTE: During the electrolysis, chlorine gas would be released so exercise caution. Ensure that the experiment is done in a well ventilated place and also handle the electric equipment with care and ensure that the bleach doesn't come in contact with your skin

At the end of the electrolysis, you should end up with a pale yellow solution of bleach which you would need to store in an appropriate container or a dark bottle to prevent decomposition of the bleach
