How long will an ammonia and bleach mixture create toxic fumes?

until one of them is used up.


How long do you have to be exposed to a mixture of 4 cups bleach and 4 cups ammonia in a 17x11x10 ft room before it is deadly?

The result would depend on the concentration of the ammonia and the bleach, as well as other factors such as the health of the individual. Attempting to research this question though experimentation is certainly a bad idea!


Can you mix methanol and ammonia?

Ammonia is often mixed with methanol and water for industrial purposes. However, the mixture should be handled carefully as it is highly toxic, corrosive, and can cause long lasting health problems.


How long will you have shortness of breath after exposure to bleach and ammonia?

Possibly, for the rest of your very short life. Mixing bleach and ammonia can create toxic gasses, which is why all the labels warn you against doing this.DO NOT MIX HOUSEHOLD CLEANING CHEMICALS!If you are still experiencing shortness of breath, go to the emergency room.


Is Ammonia poisonous to humans?

Yes, ammonia is poisonous to humans, but only in large quantity. When ammonia is used as a dilute solution in water (as a cleaning agent, for example) it is not dangerous. Pure ammonia is approximately as toxic as chlorine gas.


How would a mixture of ammonic and hydrogen be separated?

The boiling point of ammonia is -33.34C. The cheapest, almost-no-equipment way to do it I can think of is to put the mixture into a container, set the container in dry ice until all the ammonia condensed out of the mixture, then either capture or release into the atmosphere the hydrogen. The freezing point of ammonia and the sublimation point of dry ice are within a degree Celsius of each other, so if you leave it in there long enough the ammonia will freeze solid.


What does ammonia gas smell like?

Ammonia smells like very long-stayed urine and a mixture with cabbage.


Is Gaseous ammonia a pure substance?

Yes, gaseous ammonia is a pure substance. As long as it consists of only ammonia molecules, it is considered a pure substance because it has a constant composition and distinct chemical properties.


What are long term effects on human lungs of breathing animal urine?

Breathing animal urine does not pose a risk to most people. However, in concentrated amounts found in poorly ventilated areas, ammonia fumes produced by animal urine can cause a number of serious symptoms after long-term exposure. These symptoms may include burning and watering of the eyes, coughing, wheezing, headache, and nausea, among others. The World Health Organization considers ammonia to be a possible carcinogen, meaning that inhalation of these fumes may be linked to cancer growth. Never clean up animal urine that has a strong ammonia smell with bleach; mixing bleach with ammonia will cause toxic gases to form.The most common symptoms reported include headaches and burning, watery eyes.


How is ammonia separated from unreacted hydrogen and nitrogen?

When the gases leave the reactor they are hot and at a very high pressure. Ammonia is easily liquefied under pressure as long as it isn't too hot, and so the temperature of the mixture is lowered enough for the ammonia to turn to a liquid. The nitrogen and hydrogen remain as gases even under these high pressures, and can be recycled. Another way is to add the water to the mixture (or pass the mixture from cold water) Ammonia is highly soluble in water but other two gases are not.


Will bleach clean urine stains?

Do not use bleach to clean urine. After urine has been sitting out for a while, it is full of ammonia. Ammonia and bleach mixed together create Chlorine gas, which is extremely dangerous. Specifically, it causes a lot of respiration problems and can even be fatal if you are exposed to it for too long. You're better off using something like nature's miracle or white vinegar on the urine.


How long would it take if you drank bleach to die?

Drinking bleach is highly toxic and can be fatal. The time it would take to die depends on various factors such as the amount consumed, individual's health, and how quickly medical treatment is received. It is important to seek immediate medical help if someone ingests bleach.
