Each of health, flammability and reactivity is <br /> rated on n scale from 0(no hazard;normal substance) to 4(severe <br /> risk). <br /> Blue/Health <br /> • 4. Vcr}' short exposure could cause death or major residual injury. (e.g.,hydrogen <br /> cyanide) <br /> • 3. Short exposure could cause serious temporary or residual injury.
