Hazardous Reagents True or False?
True or false? -- The following chemicals or reagents are toxic?
Bromine reagent
Dinitrophenylhydrazones
Chromic Acid reagent
Sodium Iodide / Acetone
Answer:
You need to be more specific as far as which definition of toxic you want to use. If you mean can they cause any harm if exposed to or ingested in large amounts, they are all toxic. By that same definition, water can be toxic.
You best bet is to do a google search with a single name and the term MSDS as in "acetone MSDS". This will give you examples of the Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS) which has the basic safety information. Bromine reagent will not be specific enough, that can mean several things.
You will find safety concerns with all these, just as you would for most household cleaning products.
Bromine reagent and chromic acid reagent are notably toxic. The other two are less so. But as Paracelsus pointed out, poison is in the dose.
