How many sections do MSDS and SDS contain respectively?

  1. 9 sections for MSDS and 6 sections for SDS

  2. 9 sections for both MSDS and SDS

  3. 16 sections for both MSDS and SDS

  4. 16 sections for SDS and 9 sections for MSDS

The correct answer is: 16 sections for SDS and 9 sections for MSDS

MSDS (Material Safety Data Sheets) and SDS (Safety Data Sheets) are documents that provide information about the hazards of a product or chemical and advice on safety precautions. While MSDS may have had 9 sections in the past, with the implementation of the Globally Harmonized System of Classification and Labelling of Chemicals (GHS), both MSDS and SDS now contain 16 sections. This change was made to standardize the content and format of safety data sheets globally, making them more consistent and informative for users. Therefore, the correct answer is that both MSDS and SDS contain 16 sections each.
