Wow, you ask tough questions, but here goes.
Bleach, by which I imagine you mean the typical household bleach often called Javex (a popular brand name) is a solution of approximately 5% sodium hypochlorite in water. According to material data sheets, it has a specific gravity of about 1.08 at this concentration or, in other words, about 1.08 times the weight of water.
A US gallon of water weighs 8.35 lbs, therfore a US gallon of bleach weighs 8.35 x 1.08 = 9 lbs (rounded off).
Therefore one pound of bleach has a volume of 1/9'th of a US gallon.
The answer for a UK gallon, since it is larger and weighs 10 lbs for water, so 10 x 1.08 = 10.8 lbs - round off to 11 lbs - for bleach, then a pound of bleach has a volume of approximately 1/11'th of a UK gallon.
Whew!

Using regular chlorine bleach (5% solution) at a rate of 6.5 ounces of bleach per 1000 gallons of water gives a chlorination level of 2ppm per 1000 gallons. To get the rate for 2500 gallons, multiply 6.5 by 2 to get 13 ounces for 2000 gallons, then divide 6.5 by 2 to get 3.25 ounces (the amount of bleach needed to treat 500 gallons) and add that to the 13 ounces to get a total of 16.25 ounces of chlorine bleach per 2500 gallons of waterat a level of 2ppm.For a swimming pool, you would likely want a 3ppm chlorine to water ratio (24.375 ounces bleach per 2500 gallons water).
