A set of vocabulary flashcards drawn from the video transcript, covering safety, unit conversion, and nuclear physics concepts.

Bleach–vinegar mixing

Mixing household bleach with vinegar can release toxic chlorine gas; do not mix these cleaners.

Oxidant (oxidizing agent)

A substance that accepts electrons in a redox reaction and promotes oxidation.

Weak chemical bond with oxidant
