Mixing Vinegar and Hydrogen Peroxide Danger
The Harm of Mixing Vinegar and Hydrogen Peroxide
The people of modern times are more concerned with learning, and often study the properties and changes of various things. In the matter of chemistry, every exploration, but there are also hidden worries, such as the mixture of vinegar and hydrogen peroxide, must not be ignored.
Vinegar, a daily seasoning product, has a mild nature and is often used by people. Hydrogen peroxide, also known as hydrogen peroxide, is commonly used in medical clinics for disinfection. Both have their own uses, but they must not be mixed into one.
If vinegar is mistakenly mixed with hydrogen peroxide, the two will react chemically. Vinegar contains acetic acid, and hydrogen peroxide has oxidation properties. The two meet, or peracetic acid is produced. Although peracetic acid is also a disinfectant, it is strong and corrosive. Its gas is pungent, and if people inhale it, it will hurt their respiratory tract, cause cough, asthma, and even damage their lungs.
And peracetic acid is extremely unstable, in case of heat, shock, or there is a risk of spontaneous combustion or spontaneous explosion. If the two are mixed in the room, the reaction will produce gas, or cause the air pressure in the space to rise sharply. If it is not handled properly, there may be a disaster of explosion, endangering the safety of people and property.
The ancients said: "Disasters often occur in the unexpected, and chaos often originates in the unsuspected." For daily use, although common, it should not be ignored. When using vinegar and hydrogen peroxide, it is necessary to adhere to the law and do not mix them to ensure the safety of yourself and your surroundings.
