The statement
“new pictures, called pictograms, have been introduced along with hazard statements to describe chemical hazards on product and container labels”
is TRUE.

What pictograms are

  • Pictograms are standardized graphic symbols used on chemical labels to quickly show what type of hazard a product presents.
  • They are usually diamond-shaped, with a red border, white background, and a black symbol that represents the specific hazard (for example, flame for flammables, skull and crossbones for acute toxicity).

How they appear on chemical labels

  • Modern hazard communication systems (such as OSHA HazCom and GHS/WHMIS) require chemical container labels to include several elements: pictograms, a signal word (Danger/Warning), hazard statements, precautionary statements, the product identifier, and supplier information.
  • The pictograms work together with written hazard statements (like “Causes skin irritation” or “Highly flammable liquid and vapor”) to make sure users understand both the type and severity of the risk.

Why new pictograms were “introduced”

  • These newer pictograms came in with the move toward the Globally Harmonized System (GHS) of Classification and Labelling of Chemicals, which standardized hazard symbols internationally so that workers and consumers see the same style of warnings worldwide.
  • The goal is clearer, faster recognition of chemical hazards on product and container labels, even for people who may not read the label language fluently.

TL;DR: Yes, those new pictures (pictograms) were indeed introduced and are used alongside hazard statements on chemical product and container labels, so the correct answer is TRUE.
