Identify the incorrect statement among the following.

On what basis was the name of chlorine derived?

The reactions of $Cl_2$ gas with cold-dilute and hot-concentrated $NaOH$ in water give sodium salts of two (different) oxoacids of chlorine,$P$ and $Q$,respectively. The $Cl_2$ gas reacts with $SO_2$ gas,in presence of charcoal,to give a product $R$. $R$ reacts with white phosphorus to give a compound $S$. On hydrolysis,$S$ gives an oxoacid of phosphorus $T$.
