The Bhopal gas tragedy involved the leakage of poisonous methyl isocyanate (MIC) gas and other chemicals at the Union Carbide India Limited (UCIL) pesticide plant in Bhopal, Madhya Pradesh, on the night of 2–3 December 1984. It is considered the world’s worst industrial disaster.

Sodium Nitrate (NaNO₃) is also known as Chile saltpeter or Peru saltpeter (due to the large deposits found in the Atacama desert in these countries) to distinguish it from ordinary saltpeter, potassium nitrate. Also known as soda niter, it is used in the production of fertilizers, pyrotechnics and smoke bombs, glass and pottery enamels, food preservatives, and solid rocket propellant

Sodium hypochlorite bleaches are also called chlorine or liquid household bleach. They are the more powerful laundry bleaches; they are used to whiten and disinfect laundry, is typically either 5.25 percent (regular strength) or 6 percent sodium hypochlorite (ultra strength).

There are at least two good arguments for eating organic: fewer pesticides and more nutrients. In the absence of pesticides and fertilizers, plants boost their production of the phytochemicals (vitamins and antioxidants) that strengthen their resistance to bugs and weeds. A major new study has found that organic foods contain higher levels of antioxidants and less harmful chemicals than conventionally farmed produce.

An oxidizing agent is a chemical species that removes an electron from another species. Fluorine, having the largest positive value of electrode potential, is the strongest oxidizing agent. As a matter of fact, all halogens have a tendency to take up electrons and thus act as strong oxidizing agents. Among them, Fluorine (the most electronegative element) is given a value of 4.0 and is the strongest oxidizing agent which is reflected in its highly positive standard potential (Eo = +2.85 V). The oxidizing power decreases from fluorine to iodine. Fluorine is so strong an oxidizing agent that it is impossible to carry out reactions with it in aqueous solution. 2F₂+H₂O ⇒ 4HF+O₂
