Can mixing bleach and ammonia result in a potentially fatal outcome?
Yes, mixing bleach and ammonia can result in the release of toxic fumes that can be harmful or even fatal if inhaled. It is important to never mix these two chemicals together.
How much ammonia do you need to drink for it to be fatal?
Any amount of ammonia can be fatal or cause serious and painful damage. Don't think about drinking any amount of it and make sure it stays sealed in a marked bottle where it belongs. Whatever the chemical, be safe and don't ever abuse them.
Why we use blood for ammonia level?
When there is excessive level of ammonia in our body, and it is not properly excreted in by the liver, they tend to circulate in our blood. This is why blood is withdrawn to determine ammonia level.
What is the maximum ammonia level that's safe to put new fish in a tank?
Ammonia levels should be at zero. Ammonia is never safe to have in an aquarium especially new fish. Transporting a fish generally causes some stress for them and with the addition of a water problem in their new home it could prove fatal. If this is a brand new tank it would be wise to cycle it fully before adding a fish.
What is the pH level of ammonia solution?
The pH of ammonia solution is about 11. In a 1M ammonia solution (my guess is 17g/L), about 0.42% of the ammonia is converted to ammonium (my guess is 0.07 g/L), equivalent to a pH of 11.63.
Does Ammonia have a PH level between 5 and 8?
No. One molar ammonia has a pH of around 11.
What can overdose of nicotine do?
It can be fatal if the level is high enough.
Inhalation of which gas is fatal?
Inhalation of high concentrations of carbon monoxide (CO) can be fatal as it prevents oxygen from binding to hemoglobin in red blood cells, causing tissue hypoxia. Other gases that can be fatal in high concentrations include hydrogen sulfide, ammonia, and chlorine.
Ammonia level 177 is that fatal?
180 can kill you, however, with proper care survival is likely. I just was in a coma at 473 and I survived. No long term mental damage of any kind. I am VERY lucky. If you get super sick, make sure they test for it. I had been in the ER in another hospital the night before and they said "all my bloodwork was normal." DO NOT assume they test for it. I didn't get to 473 overnight, they missed it. When I was taken to another hospital in an altered mental state (very agressive, trying to bite before falling into a coma), the Dr. knew exactly what it was. She did bloodwork to confirm.
Why is the ammonia level still high after performing a water change?
The ammonia level may still be high after a water change because the beneficial bacteria in the aquarium may not have had enough time to establish and break down the ammonia. It is also possible that the tank is overstocked or overfed, leading to excess ammonia production. Regular water testing and maintenance can help address high ammonia levels in the aquarium.
Why should you never mix bleach with ammonia?
Mixing bleach with ammonia can create a toxic gas called chloramine, which can cause serious respiratory problems and even be fatal. It is important to never mix these two chemicals as it can be harmful to your health.
What is the danger of inhailing ammonia fumes?
Inhaling ammonia fumes can irritate the respiratory system, causing coughing, shortness of breath, and throat irritation. Prolonged exposure to high concentrations of ammonia can lead to more severe respiratory issues, such as bronchitis or pneumonia. In extreme cases, ammonia inhalation can cause lung damage or even be fatal.
