Question

Does bleach concentration influence the bleaching rate?

Does temperature influence bleaching rate?

Please provide a through explanation for both questions

Answer 1

Usually, bleach is hypochlorate salt, which chlorine as the bleaching agent. Of course concentration of chlorine can alter the reaction. More the chlorine, more the bleaching action happens. So, if concentration increases bleaching action also increases.

Bleaching can be influenced by temperature also. Rate of bleach increases as temperatures increases. Bleaching is not a spontaneous process to happen. So temperature plays a major role. Hence as temperature increases, bleaching also increases.
