Answer to Question 1

a

Answer to Question 2

B
Glutaraldehyde is lethal to all microorganisms and is used to disinfect and sterilize surgical in-struments and other medical supplies, including respiratory and anesthetic equipment, catheters, and thermometers.
Ethanol is an effective virucide and kills most common pathogenic bacteria, but it does not kill all microorganisms (a requirement for a sterile environment).
Hexachlorophene is bacteriostatic, not bactericidal, and should not be used in the clinical setting.
Chlorine compound is used to sanitize water supplies and swimming pools; it is not indicated in a clinical setting.
