Explanation : As this is the situation where she has to be safe first and then inform someone about her health.

Answer: The answer is C: leave the area immediately.

Explanation: (not because my mom said this, but...) whenever you mix two chemicals together, (such as household cleaners) you may soon begin to feel nauseous and dizzy, leading to the reaction of a thing called chloramine, an issue for when you do this dangerous process. If done, it would be best if you leave the area immediately, thus making my answer C.
