1.

When magnesium burns in air, a mixture of magnesium oxide and magnesium nitride, as
shown in the following reaction is produced. For each of the given reactions, identify the
substances that are reduced.

2Mg(s) + O2(g) 2MgO(s)

3Mg(s) + N2(g) Mg3N2(s)

Oxygen and magnesium


Magnesium and nitrogen
Magnesium oxide and nitride
Oxygen and nitrogen
2. This common element that we studied in Unit II is used to produce water-reactive
metallic hydrides.
Chlorine
Sulfur
Nitrogen
Hydrogen
3. Normally, responding to an emergency incident involving explosives
should be undertaken only by competent and experienced individuals
who have received special training in the handling of explosives,
except for which material? (Hint: This material can easily be
desensitized by diluting it with water.)
Cyclonite
Tetryl
Black powder
TNT (trinitrotoluene)
4. In the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) hazard diamond, in
which quadrant will you find the letters CRY to indicate storage of a
cryogen?
Blue
Red
Yellow
White
5. A common reference that can help emergency responders in making
initial decisions upon arriving at the scene of a hazardous materials
release is which of the following?

Safety data sheets


NFPA hazard diamond
Emergency Response Guidebook
Hazardous Waste Manifest

6. The oxidation number reflects the combining capacity of an ion or atom for
another ion or atom. Choose the oxidation number of chlorine in the bleach
sodium hypochlorite (NaOCl).

0
-1
+1
-2

7. This organic compound, which has a workplace exposure limit of 1 ppm averaged
over an 8-hour workday, is produced by the catalytic dehydrochlorination of 1,2-
dichloroethane.

Polyurethane
PCB
Vinyl chloride
Acetylene

8. What information is needed to determine whether an aqueous solution is acidic,


basic, or neutral?

Hydronium ion (H3O)+ concentration


Hydroxide ion (OH) concentration
pH
Molecular weight
9. The U.S. Department of Transportation (DOT) regulates the transportation of five
types of blasting agents. Which type generally include plastic explosives?

Type A or B Blasting Agent


Type C Blasting Agent
Type D Blasting Agent
Type E Blasting Agent

10. The half-life of Cobalt is 5.27 years. How many atoms of Cobalt-60 will remain
after 26.3 years if the source has 8 x 109 today?

8 x109

4 x 109

1.6 x108

2.5 x 108

11. Emergency responders for radioactive material incidents normally use the
inverse square law of radiation to estimate the separation distance from the
radioactive source. If a source has an intensity of 3.125 R/min at one foot from
the source, solve for the distance in feet to the 5 mR/min boundary. Show your
solution, including assumptions.
The Inverse Square Law states that the Intensity (I) of radiation is proportional to
the square distance from (d).
I1-3.125, I2-5MR/min, d1- 1 footd2= total of 3.125 x = d2 625 feet. I1/I2 +d1/d2 3.125
X 103 5 MR/min =√(feet =25 feet

12. The strength of different oxidizers varies. Using the information in Chapter 11 of
your textbook, arrange the oxidizers listed below according to their strengths
(begin with the strongest oxidizing agent).
Chlorine, Oxygen, Fluorine, Hydrogen Peroxide, concentrated Nitric Acid
1.FLUORINE
2.CHLORINE
3.OXYGEN
4.CONCENTRATED NITRIC ACID
5.HYDROGEN PEROXIDE

13. The current Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) ceiling limit
for H2S is up to 20 ppm for general industry. If the H2S meter reads 35 mg/m3, is
this level above or below the ceiling limit? Show your conversion of the meter
reading to ppm. The atomic mass of H is 1.007, and S is 32.065. Show your
solution, including assumptions.
The ceiling for Hydrogen Sulfide is 20 which is set by OSHA.
The weight of H2S is 34.080 G/mol 2(1.007g) +32.065=34.079 rounded
up to .80 PPM
= (mg/m3) (24.45)/ (Molecular weight) 35/24.45)/(34.080)=25.11
PPM is 25.11
