Answer to Question 1

Correct Answer: 1,2,3,4
Drain cleaners, household ammonia, oven cleaners, and toilet bowl cleaners are household products containing chemicals that can cause burns. Lemon oil furniture polish is not identified as a product that can cause chemical burns.

Answer to Question 2

Correct Answer: 1
Cardiopulmonary arrest is the most common cause of death from lightening. Respiratory and cardiac status should be assessed immediately to determine if CPR is necessary. All the other actions are secondary.
