Q

The volatility of a flammable liquid is indicated by its __________.

🔍 Key Concepts

• volatility of a liquid (how easily it gives off vapor) • Relationship between temperature and vapor formation in flammable liquids • Differences among flash point, ignition temperature, and flammable range

💭 Think About

• Which property tells you the temperature at which a liquid gives off enough vapor to form an ignitable mixture with air? • Which choice is a temperature value versus a range of concentrations in air? • Which term is most directly used in safety data sheets (SDS) to describe how easily a liquid can form flammable vapors at low temperatures?

✅ Before You Answer

• Identify which option is a single temperature that characterizes when vapors can ignite at the surface of a liquid. • Eliminate any option that describes burning once already ignited rather than how easily the liquid starts to give off ignitable vapor. • Check your hazardous materials notes: which term is specifically used to rank liquids as more or less volatile for storage and handling?
