Bleaching powder (CaOCl2):
It is used for bleaching or decolourisation of clothes. Bleaching powder on reaction with water decomposes and releases chlorine, which acts as an oxidising, bleaching and disinfecting agent.
Baking soda (NaHCO3):
It is used as an antacid for relieving stomach acidity. They react with excess acid in the stomach and neutralises it.
Washing soda(Na2CO3):
It is used in preparation of glass, soap and paper industries.
Sodium chloride (NaCl):
Aqueous sodium chloride is used for the production of H2 and Cl2 gases on electrolysis.
