Explanation:

Question 1

R.A.C.E. stands for Rescue, Alarm, Contain, Extinguish. The order of importance here is that alarming people (to get help and alert others) is crucial before attempting to extinguish, especially for safety. So the statement is false.

Faulty electrical equipment is always a concern because even if not plugged in, it can have damaged components that could cause issues (like short - circuits, fire hazards) when used or if there are other factors. So the correct option is that faulty electrical equipment is always a concern and should never be used.

A, B, C, D, K are classifications of fire extinguishers, where each class is designed to put out different types of fires (e.g., A for ordinary combustibles, B for flammable liquids, etc.).

Answer:

False
