Detailed Solution

Concept- These chemical compounds are quiet and kill bacteria when applied to the body. These compounds are present in such mild concentrations that they have no negative effects on the body or skin. Great cleaning chemicals include Lysol, carbolic corrosive (phenol), Iodine, benzoic corrosive,
Mercurochrome, boric corrosive, etc., in a weakened arrangement. Additionally, several antimicrobial creams have the same function. Savlon and Dettol are both cleaning products. The merbromin is an organomercuric disodium salt compound used as a topical antiseptic for minor cuts and scrapes and as a biological dye. It is readily available in most countries but it is no longer sold in countries like  Switzerland, Brazil, France, Iran, Germany, or the United States because of  its mercury content.
Hence, the correct answer is option 3.
