    NaOCl + H2O2 => O2 + H2O + NaCl. Remember, bleach is a solution of sodium hypochlorite so the counter ion is the free sodium ion.

    To put it another way, Bleach is simply salt with an extra oxygen atom, and Hydrogen peroxide is water with an extra oxygen atom. Put them together and they degrade into their more stable (and thus more common)  forms.
