The chances of hazard increase with the increase in the size of combustible dust particles in the foundry.

The chances of hazard increase with the increase in the size of combustible dust particles in the foundry. Correct Answer False

The chances of hazard increases due to a decrease in the size of combustible dust in the foundry. More particles in small size in a specific volume provide a larger area for combustion. The volatility of fine dust particles can easily propagate explosion by contacting ignition which might further cause dangerous physical injuries to the foundry workers.

The critical reasoning question is based on a short argument, a set of statements, or a plan of action. For each question, select the best answer of the choices given. The size of particles is directly linked to their potential for causing health problems. Small particles less than 10 micrometers in diameter cause the greatest problems, as they can get deep into the lungs and some may get into the bloodstream.
