What is true about any liquid having a flashpoint below 100 F?

It is considered stable
It is considered volatile
It is considered safe for skin contact
It is considered inert

The correct answer is: It is considered volatile

A liquid having a flashpoint below 100 F is classified as volatile because it can easily evaporate at room temperature, which increases its potential for igniting when exposed to a spark or flame. Volatility indicates that the substance has a propensity to vaporize, creating flammable fumes. This characteristic is critical for nail technicians to understand when handling various products, as it emphasizes the need for proper storage, ventilation, and safety precautions to minimize fire risks and ensure a safe working environment for both themselves and clients. Understanding the volatility of substances can help technicians make informed decisions about which products to use in their practice and how to manage their workspaces safely.
