    Regulators should be removed and replaced with protective caps when not in use?

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. True
    Explanation
    When regulators are not in use, they should be removed and replaced with protective caps. This is because regulators are devices that control the flow of gas or liquid, and if left uncovered, they can be damaged or contaminated. Protective caps help to prevent any debris, dust, or dirt from entering the regulator, ensuring its proper functioning when it is needed again. Therefore, it is important to remove and replace regulators with protective caps when not in use to maintain their effectiveness and prolong their lifespan.

Proper labeling helps to identify the contents of the bottle, their potential hazards, and necessary precautions. This information is crucial for anyone handling or working with the bottles, including students, teachers, and lab technicians.
