I learned about these from the book "A Child Called It". When the abusive parent uses the bleach+ammonia mixture on him. Then I tried to figure out what else bleach could do. This is not a healthy line of experimenting for a dumb 17 year old. I 100% believe HS chem should teach this. Then at least you know what not to do.

Isn't it very clearly printed on the bottle in your country? Here (I assume this is an EU regulation) it says "WARNING! Do not use together with other products. May release dangerous gases (chlorine)."

  Here's a couple of typical labels in the US: https://i5.walmartimages.com/asr/2025dfde-c877-4043-b91d-9784760eba8f_1.e4371637d2a5cbd2e86ded8dd722ffce.jpeg?odnWidth=undefined&odnHeight=undefined&odnBg=ffffff https://i5.walmartimages.com/asr/2025dfde-c877-4043-b91d-978... https://i5.walmartimages.com/asr/05122787-1991-4084-869e-755630b006fb_2.df5e0c8f14c7476c647f0ffe987f2942.jpeg?odnWidth=undefined&odnHeight=undefined&odnBg=ffffff https://i5.walmartimages.com/asr/05122787-1991-4084-869e-755...

    The "DO NOT use or mix with other household chemicals, such as..." part should probably go on the front and a little bigger. I can't imagine that everyone would read the whole thing.

      It's okay, because they pointed out that it's a violation of federal law to use the product in a way inconsistent with the labeling. Checkmate people who don't read the label.

    Here's an EU (UK/Ireland so it's English) one: https://images-na.ssl-images-amazon.com/images/I/81nqrPdi1nL.jpg https://images-na.ssl-images-amazon.com/images/I/81nqrPdi1nL... There are almost 200 pages of EU rules and guidance in the first document [bottom of 1], and some hundreds more pages in related sections of that site. That said, the cheap-brand bleach in my cupboard has a word-for-word translation into Danish of the English text, and a consistent layout, and there's some merit in that.

Wow, I wasn't sure if it was just me! Coincidentally that was also the same book I learned about those two being dangerous mixed together. Just curious, have you read "Go ask Alice"?
