your parents have purchased some insecticide to kill ants that keep showing up in the kitchen and pantry. the box has a small tear in it and your father repackages the insecticide in a plastic container and stores it on a high shelf in the pantry. is this a reasonable practice? explain.

Explanation No; the container is unlabeled and may be mistaken for food.

The harmful or flammable chemicals such as insecticides, toilet cleaners , mercury thermometers  must be stored in glass bottles with tight caps and put on high shelf with a cross symbol with its name labeled on it.

As this will help to recognize the substance by each individual of the family. Thus cannot be mistaken for something else.  

Also such harmful substances must not be kept in pantries

The answer is C.

Explanation: If you choose A, the container can still break even if you have a covering on it. It can also release harmful insecticide in your home and may cause lung damage if inhaled.

If you choose B, insecticides aren't that harmful to humans if the container is closed. However, if it is open, the container may be dangerous to humans.

If you choose D, even if it is out of reach of children, it is still harmful even if it is open.

So, therefore, the most logical answer is C: the container is unlabeled and may be mistaken for food.
