Question

Describe one or more tests that could distinguish solutions of the following chemical:

C- Bleach and ammonia

Answer 1

Ammonia is known as a weak base, while bleach is said to be a strong oxidizing agent. One important thing that has to be kept in mind while using Ammonia and bleach as cleansers is that they should not be mixed together, as combining the two is toxic and even deadly.

Ammonia mainly consists of one nitrogen atom and three hydrogen atoms. Bleach is made from water, caustic soda and chlorine.

Bleach can lead to discolouring because of its strong contents, Ammonia however is not known to discolour objects. So when washing coloured clothes with bleach, one should bear this in mind.
