After the acid is poured, there is

33、 a30-minute wait before the container is examined. At the conclusion of the 30-minute wait period, thecontainer is to be examined to determine whether or not the acid is absorbed or if there is evidence ofnon-absorbed acid remaining in the container.11.3 The capacity of absorbency of the absorption
