In order to determine the fire and explosion hazard data for naphtha, you would use that information contained in the Chemical Data Guide for which chemical?

A Mineral spirits
B Treacle
C Napthalene
D Tar camphor
AI Explanation

The correct answer is A) Mineral spirits. The fire and explosion hazard data for naphtha, a type of petroleum distillate, would be found in the Chemical Data Guide for Bulk Shipment for mineral spirits, which is a similar hydrocarbon solvent. The Chemical Data Guide contains important safety information, including fire and explosion hazard data, for various chemicals transported by vessel. The other options (B, C, and D) are not relevant to determining the fire and explosion hazard data for naphtha, as they refer to different types of chemicals that are not closely related to naphtha or mineral spirits.
