Basement - ANSWER✔✔ a story partly below the grade plane and having less
than one-half its clear height (measured from finished floor to finished ceiling)
below the grade plane
Boiling point - ANSWER✔✔ the temperature at which the vapor pressure of a
liquid equals the atmospheric pressure of 14.7 PSI or 760 mm of mercury.
When a boiling point is unavailable for a material, what is used? - ANSWER✔✔
20% evaporated point of a distillation performed in accordance with ASTM D 86
Chemical - ANSWER✔✔ an element, chemical compound, or mixture of elements
or compounds or both
Chemical name - ANSWER✔✔ the scientific designation of a chemical in
accordance with the nomenclature system developed by the International Union of
Pure and Applied Chemistry, the Chemical Abstracts Service rules of
nomenclature, or a name that will clearly identify a chemical for the purpose of
conducting an evaluation
IUPAC - ANSWER✔✔ International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry
Closed container - ANSWER✔✔ a container sealed by means of a lid or other
device capable of preventing the escape of liquid, vapor, or dusts in the ordinary
course of storage, handling, or use
,Combustable liquid - ANSWER✔✔ any liquid that has a closed-cup flash point at
or above 100F, as determined by the standard test procedures
Container - solid and liquid hazardous materials - ANSWER✔✔ a vessel of 60
gallons or less in capacity used for storage or transportation.
Container - compressed gases - ANSWER✔✔ a container pressure vessel or tank
designed for pressures greater than on atmosphere at 68F
What is not deemed a containers if in active use? - ANSWER✔✔ pipes, piping
systems, engines and engine fuel tanks associated with solid or liquid hazardous
materials or compressed gas
Corrosive material - ANSWER✔✔ a liquid, solid, or gas that causes permanent
injury ("full thickness destruction") to human skin at a rate specified by the
Department of Transportation regulations. Or a liquid that can corrode 1/4in of
steel or aluminum within a year
Design pressure - ANSWER✔✔ the maximum gauge pressure that a pressure
vessel, device, component, or system is designed to withstand safely under the
temperature and conditions of use
Dispensing - ANSWER✔✔ the pouring or transferring by other means of any
material from a container, tank, or similar vessel, which would release dusts,
fumes, mists, vapors, or gases to the atmosphere, unless such release is prevented
by a device, equipment, or system designed for that purpose
Educational laboratory unit - ANSWER✔✔ a laboratory unit that is used for
educational purposes for students through the twelfth grade
, Excess flow control - ANSWER✔✔ a fail-safe system or other approved device,
equipment or system designed to shut off flow caused by a rupture in a pressurized
piping system
Exhausted enclosure - ANSWER✔✔ a device, typically consisting of a hood
equipped with a fan that serves to capture and exhaust fumes, mist, vapors, and
gases generated at a workstation or other local environment. Does not include a
room provided with general ventilation
Explosion - ANSWER✔✔ an effect produced by the sudden violent expansion of
gases, whether or not accompanied by a shock wave or disruption, of enclosing
materials
Explosions include the effects of the following sources: - ANSWER✔✔ 1.
Chemical changes such as rapid oxidation, deflagration or detonation,
decomposition of molecules, and runaway polymerization
2. Physical changes such as pressure tank ruptures
3. Atomic changes (nuclear fission or fusion)
Face velocity - ANSWER✔✔ the rate of flow or velocity of air moving into the
chemical fume hood entrance or face, as measure at the plane of the chemical fume
hood face
Fire separation - ANSWER✔✔ a horizontal or vertical fire resistance-rated
assembly of materials that have protected openings and are designed to restrict the
spread of fire
