Answer to Question 1

ANS: B
A test of fire detection equipment (e.g., alarms, sprinklers) must be done quarterly. A written fire protection plan and response plan must be in place and tested quarterly. Fire extinguishers must be placed every 75 feet. Verbal safety instructions must be given to every new employee at orientation.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: D
Protective eyewear should be worn whenever danger exists of an aerosol mist or splash occurring. Cleaning up an acetic acid spill carries this risk; none of the others do if performed safely.
