The International Maritime Dangerous Goods Code assigns classes for dangerous goods. What is the proper nomenclature for class 3 substances?

A Flammable liquids
B Gases
C Toxic and infectious substances
D Miscellaneous dangerous substances and articles
AI Explanation

The correct answer is A) Flammable liquids. The International Maritime Dangerous Goods (IMDG) Code classifies dangerous goods into different classes, and Class 3 substances are specifically defined as flammable liquids. This includes any liquid with a flashpoint of 60°C (140°F) or below. The other answer choices do not accurately describe the Class 3 designation under the IMDG Code.
