the reasons organochlorides are so nasty (remember the PVC-precursor tank train spill that led to an entire city being evacuated because the chemicals give you cancer) is because there’s something deeply fucked up about chlorine herself. she can be real volatile on her own and most molecules are worse off with her involved. but when she’s together with sodium, who is also fucked up but in a different way), they like cancel each other out and form Awesome Yummy Salt
