Two state names, Arkansas and Kansas, share all but two letters in the exactly the same order.

So why do we pronounce them differently?
We can thank the French.

Arkansas was named for the French plural of a Native American tribe, while Kansas is the English spelling of a similar one.

Since the letter "s" at the end of French words is usually silent, we pronounce Bill Clinton's home state "Arkansaw."

People sometimes get confused... Hehe.. But I don't blame them.

Here are some examples:

Please, sanitize your hands.
Use an antiseptic on that wound.
Disinfect the area.
We disinfect our products before shipment.

Why is 60% to 70% is recommended for sanitizing HANDS?

- This concentration of alcohol is ideal since it is able to pe*****te the bacterial cell wall and denatures (disrupts or possibly kill/destruct) the proteins and enzymes inside the cells.

-Also, this produces less v***r and odor (reduced fumes and/or even combustion)

Why not with higher concentrations?

- Higher concentrations ( 95%) of alcohol merely just coagulates the protein outside the bacterial cell wall (this prevents the alcohol from entering the cell)

- Also, higher concentrations (99%) are used more commonly for industrial settings (such as those that involves water sensitive items) as it ev***rates faster since there is less water.

Wash your hands!

Any soap will do. Be it bar soap or liquid soap. As long as you can wash your hands with clean, running water (cold, tap, warm) for at least 20 seconds and doing it properly. You're good to go. ☺️
