Which is an example of hazardous waste?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Old battery

An old battery is an example of hazardous waste because it may contain corrosive substances, toxic chemicals, or heavy metals that can harm people, soil, water, and wildlife if it is damaged or discarded carelessly. Option D is correct. Batteries should be kept separate from ordinary household waste and delivered to an authorised battery, e-waste, or hazardous-waste collection system. Banana peels and dry leaves are biodegradable organic materials, while clean paper is generally recyclable dry waste. The exact substances vary by battery type, so safe handling does not depend on opening or testing it. Avoid burning, puncturing, or placing batteries in a regular fire or mixed bin.
