Question 328 Deck General

The correct answer is D) Water fog. According to the Chemical Data Guide for Hazardous Materials, water fog is not a recommended extinguishing agent for an ethylene cyanohydrin fire. Ethylene cyanohydrin is a flammable liquid that reacts violently with water, producing heat and toxic gases. Using water to extinguish an ethylene cyanohydrin fire could result in a dangerous reaction, making the situation worse. Instead, the guide recommends using CO2, alcohol foam, or dry chemical extinguishers to safely put out this type of fire.
