Answer: Option (E) is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to work with a volatile or flammable solvent, we can use flame hood with good ventilation so as to have a smooth and secured chemical process. Fume hood is known as a kind of device or apparatus with local ventilation that is created or designed in order to limit the exposure to toxic or hazardous fumes, dusts or vapors.
