How to determine the product from my attempt of HOCl synthesis
Ryan, sorry your approach to generate the desired compound is not the best one. This post also shows the problems with the concept of an &quot;accepted&quot; answer on StackExchange. The answer is also wrong and misleading. Please consult your academic supervisor to help you do a proper literature search. I am not sure why are you doing all this, you did not explain in your two posts. First of all, there is nothing such as pure 8% NaOCl soln. This bleach is a mixture sodium hydroxide and NaOCl. What you are apparently titrating is the free alkali with acetic acid (which you should not be doing). Simultaneously, the hypochlorite ion is decomposing into other products.
The proper place to do inorganic synthesis research is the library, not Q&amp;A site. A good reference is Kirk Othmer Encyclopedia of Chemical Technology to look up bleach and its properties. Any good library must have it.
In your first question you linked a paper &quot;Hypochlorous Acid as a Potential Wound Care Agent&quot; in the Journal of Burns and Wounds. This journal has a zero impact factor which means this is of dubious quality. There was a reason to avoid organic acid such as acetic acid in that paper. Have you read about disinfection by-products in water? Search this topic this too, because disinfection byproducts can be cancer-causing.
