Is it an alcoholic acid or a base?

Bleach is a chemical that removes dyes or paints, usually by oxidation. Wiki article about bleach

Bleach is usually a strong base.

However, there are oxidizing and reducing bleaches available, so it can be anything.

An example is sodium detonite, which is used as a strong reducing agent in some bleaching formulas.

But common under-sink bleach has a strong foundation.

If bleach is sodium hypochlorite, then NaOCl is a weak base because Cl is a weak acid. The Kb value for NaOCl is close to 10 5, which means it is still quite weak, but it is definitely not weak of weak bases.

This is the basis

Bleach contains sodium hypochlorite or NOCL. Since bleach in water is sodium hypochlorite, sodium hypochlorite in bleach is actually present as hypochloric acid:

NaOCl + H2O "Cl + Na + + OH

Your results predict that it will be sour ...

But in fact, it is a strong foundation.

I'm working on a science project and I dip the PH paper in bleach, it's blue and it turns red so I don't know who it is.

Bleach is a chemical that removes dyes or stains, usually by oxidation. Wiki article about bleach.

Bleach is usually a strong base.

Oxidizing and reducing bleaches are available, so it can be anything.

An example is sodium dithionite, which is used as a strong reducing agent in some bleaching formulas.

But ordinary under-sink bleach is a solid foundation.

If bleach is sodium hypochlorite, NaOCl, then it is a weak base because Cl is a weak acid. The Kb value for NaOCl is approximately 10 5, which means it is still quite weak, but it is definitely not the weakest of the weak bases.
