Multiple choice general knowledge science & technology

Two household chemicals you should never mix include:

  1. Vinegar and baking soda. Those bubbles could be toxic!

  2. Bleach and water. Diluting bleach only makes it more dangerous.

  3. Oil and water. They don't mix and aren't meant to!

  4. Bleach and ammonia. Chloramine vapors can be deadly!
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
D Correct answer
Explanation

Mixing bleach and ammonia produces chloramine gas, which is highly toxic and can cause serious respiratory damage or death. This is a critical safety rule. Vinegar and baking soda react safely (just CO2 and water), bleach and water is proper dilution practice, and oil/water not mixing is harmless - they're just immiscible.
