true or false ​

Answer 1

Answer:

Photography by Julian NitzscheDecember 2nd 2014 marks the 30th anniversary of the world's worst industrial disaster. In the central Indian city of Bhopal, a chemical reaction at a pesticide factory released 42 tons of methyl isocyanate, better known as MIC. In one night between 3,000 and 10,000 lives were lost.

Answer 2

Answer:

True.

Explanation:

Introduction of water to the MIC storage tank resulted in a highly exothermic reaction generating CO2, which would have led to a rapid increase in pressure that likely caused the release of 40 metric tons of MIC into the atmosphere. The release led to arguably the worst industrial disaster on record.
