Question

Which of the following types of containers must be labeled appropriately? C: Both A and B D: Personal water bottles B: Chemicals moved to secondary containers A: All chemical containers

Answer 1

The chemicals in the beakers can be assigned based on their boiling points.

Step-by-step explanation:

The chemicals in the beakers can be assigned as follows:

Beaker A: Cesium Chloride (CsCl)

Beaker B: Hydrochloric Acid (HCl)

Beaker C: Argon (Ar)

Beaker D: Hydrogen Fluoride (HF)

The reasoning behind this assignment is based on the boiling points of the chemicals.

Beaker B has a higher boiling point than Beaker D, so it contains Hydrochloric Acid which has a higher boiling point than Hydrogen Fluoride.

Beaker D has a higher boiling point than Beaker A, so it contains Hydrogen Fluoride which has a higher boiling point than Cesium Chloride.

Beaker A has a higher boiling point than Beaker C, so it contains Cesium Chloride which has a higher boiling point than Argon.
