question 10 (4 points)
the disposal of hazardous waste in the laboratory:
must always be handled in accordance with safety guidelines specific to that
class of compound
must always be diluted with water first
must always be neutralized first

Explanation:

Hazardous laboratory waste includes many different types (like toxic chemicals, corrosive substances, reactive materials) with unique risks. Diluting with water or neutralizing first is not safe or appropriate for all (e.g., some reactive chemicals react dangerously with water, and neutralization is only for acids/bases). Only following compound-specific safety guidelines ensures proper, safe disposal.

Answer:

Must always be handled in accordance with safety guidelines specific to that class of compound
