I uploaded a video for you to watch to answer these questions. However,  the 3rd Question you need to use the charts that I added ( lead SDS and Arsenic), for the fourth Question you need to google the Flint Water crisis in 2014 and how is it related to the case of the study. I need a paragraph for each question and support your answers with a good reason from the video

and if it is accidentally ingested normally passes through the gastrointestinal system without
significant absorption into the body. Lead is not easily absorbed through the skin.

Lead (7439-92-1)

Additional information There is some evidence that inorganic lead compounds may have a carcinogenic effect, and
they have been classified by IARC as probably carcinogenic to humans. However, it is
considered that this classification does not apply to lead in articles, given the very low
bioavailability of metallic lead. Carcinogenicity studies of lead metal powder have been
negative. Epidemiology studies of workers exposed to inorganic lead compounds have found
a limited association with stomach cancer. IARC has concluded that lead metal is possibly
carcinogenic to humans (Group aB).

IARC group 2B – Possibly carcinogenic to humans

National Toxicology Program (NTP) Status 3 – Reasonably anticipated to be Human Carcinogen

Reproductive toxicity

:

May damage fertility or the unborn child.

Specific target organ toxicity (single exposure) : Not classified

(Based on available data, the classification criteria are not met)

Specific target organ toxicity (repeated
exposure)

: May cause damage to organs through prolonged or repeated exposure.

Lead (7439-92-1)

Additional information Lead is a cumulative poison and may be absorbed into the body through ingestion or
inhalation. Although inhalation and ingestion of lead in massive form are unlikely, poor hygiene
practises may result in hand to mouth transfer which maybe significant over a prolonged
period of time. Inorganic lead compounds have been documented in observational human
studies to produce toxicity in multiple organ systems and body function including the
haemotopoetic (blood) system, kidney function, reproductive function and the central nervous
system.

SECTION 13: Disposal considerations

13.1. Waste treatment methods

Waste disposal recommendations : Dispose in a safe manner in accordance with local/national regulations. Hazardous waste shall
not be mixed together with other waste. Different types of hazardous waste shall not be mixed
together if this may entail a risk of pollution or create problems for the further management of
the waste. Hazardous waste shall be managed responsibly. All entities that store, transport or
handle hazardous waste shall take the necessary measures to prevent risks of pollution or
damage to people or animals. Reuse or recycle following decontamination. Remove to an
authorized dump (Class I). Do not discharge into surface water (2000/60/EC, Council decision
2455/2001/EC, O.J. L331 of 15/12/2001).
