Q

hazardous substances that enters the body thru absorption. injection, ingestion or inhalation.

Study These Flashcards
A

Toxic substances

24
Q

chemical agents that cause undesirable response of tissues upon contact or exposure.

25
cause depletion of oxygen to the tissues.
Asphyxiants
26
mainly affect the central nervous system by inducing depressant effects.
Narcotics or anesthetics
27
agents that cause toxic action mainly on the internal organs
Systemic poisons
28
chemical agents that may cause cancer to exposed individual.
Carcinogens
29
chemical agents that affect the cells of the person upon exposure that may lead into cancer or undesirable mutation to take place on later generation.
Mutagens
30
agents that cause birth defects upon exposure of the pregnant woman.
Teratogens
31
agents that cause allergic or allergic-like reactions.
Sensitizers
32
solid particles of a substance or mixture suspended in a gas (usualty air)
Dust
33
liquid droplets of a substance or mixture suspended in a gas (usually air)
Mist
34
gaseous form of a substance or mixture released from its liquid or solid state.
Vapor
35
important consideration for manufacturing industries that releases chemicals with potential hazards to the environment.
ENVIRONMENTAL HAZARDS
36
the extent to which a substance is taken up by an organism and distributed to an area within the organism.
Bioavailability
37
the net result of uptake, transformation, and elimination of a substance in an organism due to all routes of exposure
Bioaccumulation
38
the net result of uptake, transformation, and elimination of a substance in an organism due to waterborne exposure
Bioconcentration
39
involve accidental release of hazardous solid materials.
SOLID CHEMICAL SPILLS
40
accidental spill of liquid materials that are potentially hazardous.
LIQUID CHEMICAL SPILLS
41
most commonly used absorbents for chemical spills
Spill pillows
42
treated with soda ash (NazCOs) to neutralize the acid spills.
Acid solution spills
43
treated with citric acid or dilute hydrochloric acid to neutralize the base spills.
Alkali solution spills
44
tend to be organic chemicals and insoluble in water
VOLATILE AND FLAMMABLE SOLVENT SPILLS
45
especially hazardous due to the high toxicity of mercury vapor.
MERCURY SPILLS
46
design of products and processes that lessen or more desirably eliminate the use and production of hazardous substance
green chemistry
47
Unnecessary waste generated from the laboratory can be prevented by careful chemical managemen
Prevent waste
48
Working with small amount of chemicals is another great way of reducing the potential hazards for a laboratory experiment (microscale)
Microscale work and wet chemistry elimination
49
Chemical laboratories are safer when they substitute non-hazardous, or less hazardous
Use of safer solvents and other materials
50
Careful plan of the experiment routes that would render the products and byproducts safe or less hazardous
Design experimental products for degradation after use
51
Thermometers and manometers are the most common laboratory uses of elementary mercur
Mercury replacements in the laboratory
52
must be carefully planned to prevent wastage of chemicals in the laboratories.
ACQUISITION OF CHEMICALS
53
should not be determined by the cheaper unit price basis of large quantities but rather by the amount needed for the experiment.
Chemical orders/purchases
54
is a record (usually a database), which in some cases is a required document for regulatory compliance, that lists the chemicals in the laboratory
chemical inventory
55
important component to a laboratory safety program. lmproper practice of chemical storage may result in accidents due to undesired reactions from contaminations.
STORAGE OF CHEMICALS
56
important and safe practice of chemical storage. Chemicals must be stored in terms of their compatibility and hazard classification.
Segregating hazardous chemicals
57
Types of containers that will be used to store the chemicals in the laboratories must be compatible also with the class of chemical to prevent degradation or unwanted reaction/contamination.
Containers and equipment
