Detailed explanation-1: -Though this may seem like a sure-fire way to eliminate household germs and diseases, the mixing of chemicals can produce highly toxic fumes or create an extremely corrosive product. The Skokie Fire Department strongly encourages citizens to refrain from the mixing of household chemicals.
Detailed explanation-2: -Many chemicals are incompatible, as I said earlier. And unless you know the information beforehand, it’s very difficult to say what will happen when two or more chemicals are mixed together. Many chemicals become corrosive or explosive when mixed and they could seriously damage your health, or that of the environment.
Detailed explanation-3: -Chemicals with the same color can be stored together without a dangerous reaction, while chemicals with different colors cannot.
Detailed explanation-4: -Chemicals which react to produce heat, pressure, fire, explosion, or violent reactions when mixed together are incompatible. To prevent uncontrolled mixing, we need to segregate incompatible materials.
