Strong chlorine odor

Decomp in acid; decomp with evolution of chlorine in cold water /Basic calcium hypochlorite/|Decomposes in water and alcohol; not hygroscopic; an oxidizing material; stable chlorine carrier.|Evolves chlorine freely and at hugher temperatures oxygen /Lime, chlorinated/|Decomposes rapidly and exothermically giving off oxygen and chlorine monoxide gases when heated above 175 °C. Reacts vigorously or explosively with oxidizable materials.|Does not decompose on standing

Water soluble. Slowly decomposes in water and moist air to liberate oxygen.|Water soluble. Slowly decomposed by water with the evolution of gaseous chlorine and heat. Experimental work at Argonne National Laboratory has determined that there is essentially no Cl2 gas formation; the substance is quite unreactive in water. This does not prevent Cl2 formation by a catalytic mechanism, but under normal conditions calcium hypochlorite is quite unreactive. The hydration reaction was rapid and quite exothermic. The small change in gas volume was attributed to this heating. (Argonne Report ANL/DIS-00-1, October 2000).

Strong Oxidizing Agent

BLEACHING POWDER, [WITH <= 39% AVAILABLE CHLORINE] is a strong oxidizing agent. Also, a base. Acts in aqueous solution by releasing hypochlorite ion (OCl- ion). Decomposes on standing to give oxygen (a strong oxidizing agent) and calcium chloride. Mixing of bleaching powder (hypochlorite solution) with ammonia solutions produces toxic/explosive ammonia trichloride vapors.|CALCIUM HYPOCHLORITE is a powerful oxidizing agent, particularly in the presence of water or as it decomposes when heated to release oxygen and chlorine gases. May react vigorously with carbon; reacts potentially explosively with finely divided carbon. Reacts with acetylene to form explosive chloroacetylenes. Reactions with organic matter, oil, hydrocarbons; alcohols may lead to explosions. Reactions with nitromethane, methanol, ethanol (and other alcohols) can become violent after a delay. Reacts with possible ignition and/or explosion with organic sulfur compounds and with sulfides. Decomposes evolving oxygen, a change that can be catalyzed by rust on metal containers. Forms highly explosive NCl3 on contact with urea or ammonia. Evolves highly toxic gaseous chlorine gas when heated or on contact with acids [Sax, 9th ed., 1996, p. 1905]. A mixture with damp sulfur reacted violently, and molten sulfur was ejected [Chem Eng. News, 1965, 46(29), 6]. The combination of calcium hypochlorite, sodium hydrogen sulfate, starch, and sodium carbonate, when compressed, caused the materials to incandescence, followed by explosion, [Ind. Eng. Chem., 1937, 15, 282].
