Which of the following is listed as an example of Division 6.1 hazards?

• A. Tear gas, pesticides, chloroform, toxic dyes
• B. Water, salt, sugar
• C. Petrol, diesel, kerosene
• D. Oxygen, nitrogen, argon

Answer: (A)

Division 6.1 covers toxic substances—chemicals that can cause illness or death through inhalation, ingestion, or absorption. The items listed—tear gas, pesticides, chloroform, and toxic dyes—are all toxic substances, so they belong in Division 6.1 and require the specific handling, packaging, labeling, and documentation that this division dictates. The other options illustrate different hazard classes: water, salt, and sugar are not toxic; petrol, diesel, and kerosene are flammable liquids (Class 3); oxygen, nitrogen, and argon are gases (Class 2). So the listed toxic items are the ones that fit Division 6.1.
