Hi all. I need help with chemistry again.

60 percent of our water is treated with 12 percent sodium hypochlorite
solution
40 percent of our water is treated with chlorine
Our water tends to be a bit alkaline

1) What happens to the sodium hypochlorite when it's added to water? I'm
interested in the chemical equasion -- the byproducts of the breakdown of
NaOCl.

1b) Can there be unreacted sodium hypochlorite in the water that comes out
of my tap?

2) What is the effect of our water (with the above amounts of sodium
hypochlorite) on soil and soil biology?

3) What is the effect of our water on AACT production?

4) What test can I do to check for unreacted sodium hypochlorite and NaOCl
derivatives?

Many thanks in advance for your help!
Paulette
