CDL · Hazardous materials
Shipping papers must give a hazardous material's details in a set order. Which entry is written in that order?
Correct answer: UN1090, Acetone, Class 3.
Answer options
- AUN1090, Acetone, Class 3 Correct
- BUN1789, Class 8, Hydrochloric acid
- CHexanes, UN1208, Class 3
Why
Entries must be ordered as the ID number, the proper shipping name, and the hazard class or division, finishing with the packing group where one applies. Only the acetone entry is in that order: the hexanes entry opens with the name, and in the hydrochloric acid entry the class comes ahead of the name.
