1. waste solvents are flammable, but not toxic. a: ) true b: ) false 2. which of the following guidelines apply to waste absorbents storage? a) containers should be checked weekly for leaks. b) containers should be marked "hazardous waste". 3. the danger in using soy solvents is that they: a: ) are not approved by the fda b: ) are not approved by the epa c: ) take paint off of surfaces where used 4. the best way to determine if you are using a halogenated solvent is to: a: ) consult your supervisor b: ) check the container to see if it includes salt c: ) read the msds associated with the solvent

1. That statement is false

Waste solvent is considered to be toxic and dangerous if somehow got into our system and a large portion of this solvent could cause corosion/iritation to our skin. Because of this, solvent waste need to be  processed and disposed  according to the government's procedure.

2.I believe the answer is:  B) Containers should be marked "Hazardous Waste".

The purpose of such mark is to ensure all employees and distributors that handles the container would treat them with extra caution. The minimum amount of time  required to check the containers for any leaks is monthly, not weekly.

3. I believe the answer is: C:) Take paint off of surfaces where used

They are considered to be common substance to be used for removing  colors of spray paint, permanent markers, and inks almost any surface.  Using this without care would risk a company to destroy the packaging of the products and make them unmarketable.

4. I believe the answer is: C:) Read the MSDS associated with the solvent

MSDS stands for material safety data sheets. This sheets consist of catalogues of susbtances along with their compounds, and mixtures. It also contain steps needed to be done to use the solvent safely along with dangerous warning on what not to do to ensure occupational safety.

there was no passage listed but using the process of elimination i'd say it was d. the high economy would do the opposite. i don't see how low prices would affect it. high unemployment is possible but i feel d is the better answer.
