14. __________ fires involve combustible metals such as magnesium, sodium, titanium, and certain
organometallic compounds such as alkyl lithium and Grignard reagents.
15. __________ is electricity at rest. It is formed by the contact and separation of dissimilar materials.
16. __________ is something that can cause an accelerant or flammable material to ignite or
smolder.
17. __________ is caused by movement of heated gasses produced by any burning material or by
heated air rising to the upper limits of the space in which it is contained.
18. _________ is an unexpected, unforeseen, unplanned and unwanted occurrence or event that
causes damage or loss of materials or properties, injury or death.
19. __________ means moving or handling things by lifting, lowering, pushing, pulling, carrying,
holding, or restraining using one’s physical strength.
20. __________ is the area within which you perform the tasks that add up to your job.

22. __________is the lowest temperature at which fuel begins to give off flammable vapors and form
an ignitable mixture in air.
23. _________ results from a chemical reaction where there is a slow generation of heat from
oxidation of organic compounds that, under certain conditions, is accelerated until the ignition
temperature of the fuel is reached.
24. _________ are one means of control that will limit the area of a fire or at least retard its spread.
25. _________ are also called first-aid fire extinguishers since they are intended to be used for
incipient fires.

II. MODIFIED TRUE OR FALSE. (2 POINTS EACH)

Write A if both the statements are correct. Write B if only the first statement is correct. Write C if
only the second statement is correct. Write D if NONE of the statements are correct.
______1. CLASS K fires are fires that involve combustible cooking fuels such as vegetable or
animal oils and fats. Fires that involve energized electrical wiring or equipment (motors,
computers, panel boxes) are called CLASS B fires.
______ 2. Catalysts are substances that increase the speed at which a fire spreads. When a fire
starts, a fourth element, which is the chemical reaction itself, is necessary for flame propagation.
______3. Normally, the air has 23% oxygen and 77% nitrogen.The fire extinguishment
procedure demonstrates the principles of extinguishing fire.
_____4. Class C fires involve uncommon materials and occur in fairly specialized situations.
Hazardous sparks such as globules of molten, burning metal or hot slag are produced by both
welding and cutting operations.
______5. Conduction is the transfer of heat from molecule to molecule.Radiation is the transfer
of heat in straight rays.
______6. Maintenance is a "quick check" that visually determines whether the fire extinguisher
is properly placed and will operate. Inspection must be done at least monthly or more to be
effective. Inspection means a complete and thorough examination of each extinguisher.
______7. MMH is always hazardous but the level of hazard depends on what you are handling,
what the task is, and what the conditions are at the workplace or work site. While quick and
easy mobilization and storage of materials is a necessity in the workplace, the tendency to
deviate from a safe way of doing it happens, unmindful of the adverse consequences to both the
person and the material.
______ 8. Mechanically-powered materials handling equipment are classified into two: lifting
equipment and pushing equipment. Pushing equipment includes a variety of items for lifting
heavy and bulky items with minimal human intervention such as hoists and cranes.
______9. The higher the flashpoint, the more dangerous a substance is. Even if found together,
fuel and oxygen will not burn, we need to introduce spark into it.
_____10. An ignition source is something that can cause an acelerant or flammable material to
ignite. To prevent the spread of fire, we need to make sure that the area is large enough so that
it can escape.
III. ENUMERATION
(1-7) 7 wastes of the workplace
(8-11) Fire Tetrahedron Composition
(9-12) Examples of Barriers, give at least four
(13-17) 5S
(18-20) Components of the Fire Triangle
