Q

Which product(s) is(are) compatible with the product ethylene cyanohydrin?

🔍 Key Concepts

• Chemical compatibility and reactivity hazards when mixing cargoes • Typical behavior of strong acids (like sulfuric and nitric acid) with organic cyanohydrins • Reactivity of isocyanates and ammonia with compounds containing –OH and –CN groups

💭 Think About

• Think about which of these substances are powerful oxidizers or dehydrating agents and how they might react with an organic compound like ethylene cyanohydrin. • Consider which choices are likely to cause violent reactions, polymerization, or toxic gas release when mixed with cyanide‑containing organics. • Ask yourself: which option is more commonly associated with compatibility and neutral or stabilizing behavior, rather than aggressive reaction?

✅ Before You Answer

• Verify which listed substances are strong mineral acids/oxidizers vs bases vs reactive organics. • Check standard chemical compatibility tables (such as for cargo stowage or tank-washing) for ethylene cyanohydrin and each option. • Confirm which substance is least likely to cause exothermic reaction, decomposition, or toxic gas evolution when in contact with ethylene cyanohydrin.
