In order to determine the health hazard data for carbolic acid, you would use that information contained in the Chemical Data Guide for which chemical?

A Phenol
B Carbon bisulfide
C Carbinol
D Acetic oxide
AI Explanation

The correct answer is A) Phenol. Phenol is the common name for carbolic acid, which is the chemical in question. The Chemical Data Guide, published by the US Coast Guard, contains the health hazard data for various chemicals, including phenol. Therefore, to determine the health hazard data for carbolic acid, you would refer to the information in the Chemical Data Guide for phenol. The other options are incorrect because carbon bisulfide, carbinol, and acetic oxide are different chemicals that would not be used to determine the health hazard data for carbolic acid.
