The correct answer really is B.

If you are directed to break that rule then you better be in a high level chemistry class. When I taught things like that I insisted that students just wait until the chemical permeated the fume cabinet and even then I was always very nervous.

Sometimes you have to know when to ignore a bad direction. If you are working with chlorine, for example, you should be especially careful. That stuff was used in WWI as part of a chemical warfare technique. Many men suffered grotesque deaths by breathing it in, particularly if they were in trenches. Chlorine is heavier than air. It sinks to the lowest level.

Well, I would say A. Wafting is recommended, but you shouldn’t smell an unknown chemical though.

An air mass usually forms in an area of _____. low pressure because it's stable low pressure because it's unstable high pressure
horsena [70]

Answer: high pressure because it's stable

Explanation:

Air mass is volume of air which has stable temperature, humidity and pressure horizontally. Over time, each air mass acquires properties of the region by residing over same part of a surface.

Areas of low pressure and high pressure occur where there is warm air and cold air respectively. An air mass usually forms over an area of high pressure. Warm air rises up and cold air takes its place. Warm air has low density and low pressure where as cold air has high density and pressure and therefore, sinks to the bottom. This is a stable condition.  The movement of air mass is responsible for maintenance of temperature conditions on Earth.
