When chlorine reacts with hot and cone. NaOH , the products formed are
  1. $\mathrm{NaCl}, \mathrm{NaClO}_3, \mathrm{H}_2 \mathrm{O}$
  2. $\mathrm{NaCl}, \mathrm{NaOCl}, \mathrm{H}_2 \mathrm{O}$
  3. $\mathrm{NaCl}, \mathrm{H}_2 \mathrm{O}$ only
  4. $\mathrm{NaOCl}, \mathrm{H}_2 \mathrm{O}$

Solution

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