    It is legal to purchase chemicals without the supplier providing proper labelling and SDS.

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. False
    Explanation
    It is not legal to purchase chemicals without the supplier providing proper labelling and SDS (Safety Data Sheet). Labelling and SDS are important for ensuring the safe handling, storage, and transportation of chemicals. They provide information about the hazards, precautions, and emergency procedures associated with the chemical, which is crucial for the safety of individuals using or coming into contact with the chemicals. Therefore, it is necessary for suppliers to provide proper labelling and SDS when selling chemicals.

    • Orange, White, Black

    Correct Answer
    A. Red, White, Black
    Explanation
    The correct answer is red, white, black. GHS pictograms are used to communicate hazards on labels and safety data sheets. The red color represents the background and is used to indicate the type of hazard. The white color is used for the symbol itself, which provides specific information about the hazard. The black color is used for the border of the pictogram. This combination of colors ensures that the pictogram is easily recognizable and understood by users.

    Explanation
    The correct answer is Danger, Warning. In the Globally Harmonized System (GHS), signal words are used to indicate the level of hazard associated with a chemical. "Danger" is used for more severe hazards, indicating a higher level of risk, while "Warning" is used for less severe hazards. This combination of signal words helps to communicate the potential dangers and risks associated with a particular chemical, allowing individuals to take appropriate safety precautions.

    Correct Answer
    A. Safety Data Sheet - 16 sections
    Explanation
    The correct answer is "Safety Data Sheet - 16 sections". Safety Data Sheets (SDS) are documents that provide information about the hazards of a chemical substance or product. They contain important details such as physical and chemical properties, handling and storage instructions, emergency procedures, and more. The SDS is divided into 16 sections, each covering specific information to ensure the safe handling and use of the substance or product.

    Explanation
    The correct answer is 9 (Nine). This is because the GHS (Globally Harmonized System of Classification and Labelling of Chemicals) includes a total of nine pictograms or hazard symbols. These pictograms are used to visually represent different types of hazards associated with chemicals, such as flammable, corrosive, toxic, and explosive substances. Each pictogram has a specific shape and color to indicate the type of hazard, making it easier for workers and consumers to identify potential risks when handling or using chemicals.
