A.
Toxicity and ignitability
B.
Corrosivity
C.
Reactivity
D.
All of these
Answer

Answer: Option D

Solution

Answer: Option D
Solution:
Waste is classified as hazardous if it shows Toxicity and ignitability, Corrosivity and Reactivity.
Waste is unwanted or unusable materials. Waste is any substance discarded after primary use, or is worthless, defective and of no use. A waste product may become a by-product, joint product or resource through an invention that raises a waste product's value above zero.
Toxic waste materials can contaminate surface water, groundwater, soil, and air which causes more problems for humans, other species, and ecosystems.
Airbag propellants' characteristics of reactivity and ignitability are the characteristics that qualify for hazardous waste.
