◉ What is terrorism?
Answer: The systematic use of terror to coerce groups of people or
governments.
◉ What is damaged caused to when hazmats are released
uncontrolled from their containers?
Answer: Life, critical systems, property and the environment
◉ What is the second most effective means for reducing the impact
of hazmat incidents on a community?
Answer: Planning for them.
◉ Emergency planning is required under which federal law?
Answer: Superfund amendments and reauthorization act (SARA)
◉ What are the 3 subchapters of the SARA regulations?
Answer: Title 1- emergency planning and notification,
,Title 2- reporting requirements
Title 3- general provisions
◉ What is a gas?
Answer: Any material that has a boiling point of less than 68 degrees
F
◉ What is a liquid?
Answer: Any material that has a boiling point greater than 68
degrees F
◉ What is a solid?
Answer: Any natural that has a melting point above ambient
temperature
◉ What is boiling point?
Answer: The boiling point of a liquid is the temperature at which it
changes into a gas or vapor at its max rate.
◉ What are materials with low boiling points classified as?
Answer: Volatile. Which means they give off large amounts of vapor.
◉ What is vapor pressure?
, Answer: The pressure the vapor of a liquid exerts on its container
when the vapor and liquid are in equilibrium
◉ What kind of boiling points will high vapor pressure have and
what kind will low vapor pressure have?
Answer: High vapor pressure = low boiling points
Low vapor pressure = high boiling points
◉ What measurements are vapor pressure usually expressed in?
Answer: Millimeters of mercury (mmHg) or pounds per square inch
(psi)
◉ What is specific gravity?
Answer: the ratio of the density of a substance to the density of
water. Water = 1
◉ What is vapor density?
Answer: Its the density of a gas in relations to air. Air
◉ What is solubility?
Answer: A materials ability to dissolve into water or another specific
solvent.
