Answer to Problem 78A

The warning "do not incinerate" is displayed on aerosol containers. Aerosol containers that have been incinerated may cause the pressure within the container to increase to a point where it will explode.

Explanation of Solution

The warning "do not incinerate" is displayed on aerosol containers. Aerosol canisters cannot be incinerated because their combustion would generate vapor within the container. This has the potential to raise the pressure inside the container. Explosions are possible if the pressure within the container is greater than the maximum allowed pressure for that container.

Conclusion

The warning "do not incinerate" is displayed on aerosol containers. Aerosol containers that have been incinerated may cause the pressure within the container to increase to a point where it will explode.
