Position 2 on a hazard placard relates to which category?

• A. Health (blue)
• B. Flammability (red)
• C. Reactivity (yellow)
• D. Special information (white)

Answer: (D)

Position 2 points to the white panel, which is used for special information. Hazard placards are arranged in four color panels around a central point, each color representing a hazard category: blue for health, red for flammability, yellow for reactivity, and white for any special handling information. The white panel can carry symbols or letters indicating specifics like oxidizers or water reactivity, or other special instructions. So position 2 being white means the emphasis is on special information rather than health, flammability, or reactivity.
