    Bleaching action of\[CaOC{{l}_{2}}\]is due to

    A) nascent oxygen               

    B)        chlorine

    C)        \[HClO\]                              

    D)        \[HCl\]

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

    \[2CaCO{{l}_{2}}+\underset{\text{(limited)}}{\mathop{{{H}_{2}}S{{O}_{4}}}}\,\to CaC{{l}_{2}}+CaS{{O}_{4}}+2HClO\]                \[HClO\xrightarrow{{}}HCl+[O]\] On account of evolution of nascent oxygen, it acts as an oxidising and bleaching agent.
