  • Correct answer
    A
    $\mathrm{NaCl}, \mathrm{NaClO}_3, \mathrm{H}_2 \mathrm{O}$
  • B
    $\mathrm{NaCl}, \mathrm{NaOCl}, \mathrm{H}_2 \mathrm{O}$
  • C
    $\mathrm{NaCl}, \mathrm{H}_2 \mathrm{O}$ only
  • D
    $\mathrm{NaOCl}, \mathrm{H}_2 \mathrm{O}$

Solution

$3 \mathrm{Cl}_2+6 \mathrm{NaOH} \longrightarrow 5 \mathrm{NaCl}+\mathrm{NaClO}_3+3 \mathrm{H}_2 \mathrm{O}$

Hence, the correct answer is option: 'A'.
