The Chemistry of Clean:

When it comes to DIY cleaning solutions, it’s essential to understand the chemistry behind household ingredients. Mixing the wrong substances can be ineffective at best and dangerous at worst. Here’s a quick guide on what not to mix:

  • Bleach & Vinegar: Combining these creates toxic chlorine gas.

  • Bleach & Ammonia: This mixture produces dangerous chloramine vapors.

  • Bleach & Rubbing Alcohol: When mixed, they create chloroform, a risky substance.

  • Vinegar & Baking Soda: Though not toxic, this combo is more fizzle than sizzle, neutralizing each other’s cleaning power.

  • Hydrogen Peroxide & Vinegar: Together, they form corrosive peracetic acid.

Always use cleaning products as directed and never mix them unless you’re certain it’s safe. For more detailed information, check out the full articles on safe cleaning practices. Stay safe and clean smart!
