Solution

The correct option is B

False


To store a chemical into a container, the material of the container must not react with the chemical. Metals like iron when left exposed to moisture and air it forms an oxide layer called rust. But, plastics do not react with water and air. They are not corroded easily. Hence, good quality plastics can be used to store various kind of materials including many chemicals.
