Question

which of the following statements correctly describes the chemical according to this label? o it is safe to mix this chemical with water. o this chemical is highly flammable at room temperature. o this chemical is highly unstable and may detonate if exposed to air. o this chemical poses no health hazards.

Explanation:

The NFPA 704 diamond - the label shown, indicates hazards of chemicals. Blue represents health hazard (3 in this case, indicating serious health hazard), red represents flammability (2 indicating moderate flammability), yellow represents reactivity (2 indicating moderate instability), and white with a 'W' slash indicates it is not safe to mix with water. So, this chemical is highly flammable at room temperature.

Answer:

This chemical is highly flammable at room temperature.
