Please do not call it "bleach", it is not chlorine, it is hydrogen peroxide.
Someone coming across this thread may be confused by this. I have no idea what would happen if chlorine bleach and hydrochloric acid were mixed.
Hello--
A Wiki search states...
"The chemical equation for bleach and hydrochloric acid is as follows: NaClO + 2 HCl ----> Cl2 + H2O + NaCl. In other words, sodium hypochlorite and hydrochloric acid make saltwater and chlorine gas. ... Chlorine gas is highly reactive because the bond between the two chlorine atoms is weak..."
(According to various news outlets, Syria's Assad regime is using chlorine gas or
another related weaponized chlorine compound against civilians, causing many
casualties.)
Under NO circumstances should you mix these chemicals to use an an experimental
