Asked in a 2000 paper

A gas is termed as non-toxic, if its maximum permissible concentration (TLV) ranges from ______________ ppm?

Correct answer: A. 10000 to 100000

  • A. 10000 to 100000
  • B. 3000 to 6000
  • C. 6000 to 9000
  • D. 1000 to 2000

Explanation

A very high TLV, around 10,000 to 100,000 ppm, is associated with gases considered relatively non-toxic in ordinary industrial exposure classifications. Lower ppm limits usually indicate toxic or strongly irritating substances.
