Answer to Question 1

B
Movement to the hall is the safest and fastest and does not expose the patients to being out of doors, in elevators, or near exterior windows.

Answer to Question 2

A
Chlorine gas can be seen as a low-lying green cloud. The smell of almonds is associated with cyanide. Nausea is a nonspecific finding. Skin blistering is the result of contact with liquid chlo-rine.
