Which container code describes an egg-shaped container?

• A. 06
• B. 07
• C. 12
• D. 31

Answer: (A)

Container codes are a quick way to identify the packaging shape for a hazardous material. Each code in the system is tied to a specific silhouette, so when a question asks which code describes an egg-shaped container, you’re looking for the one that matches that oval, rounded form exactly. That code is the one set up to represent the egg-like container, which is why it’s the best choice here. The other codes correspond to different shapes (not egg-shaped), so they wouldn’t describe the container in question. Knowing these shape-to-code mappings helps you verify packaging correctly and stay compliant during transport and storage.
