Explanation:

Analyze the GHS terms

We need to match each Globally Harmonized System (GHS) term on the left with its correct definition on the right. Let's look at the terms:

1. Hazard Class
2. Signal Word
3. Hazard Category
4. Hazard Statement
5. Precautionary Statement
6. Classification
7. Pictogram

Match definitions for each term

Let's evaluate the definitions on the right to find the correct matches:

• Hazard Class: This represents the nature of the physical, health, or environmental hazard.
• Match: "the nature of the physical or health hazard"

• Signal Word: This is used to indicate the relative level of severity of a hazard and alert the reader to a potential hazard on the label (e.g., "Danger", "Warning").
• Match: "indicates the relative level of severity of a hazard"

• Hazard Category: This is the division of criteria within each hazard class, comparing the severity of the hazard (with Category 1 being the most severe).
• Match: "division of criteria within each hazard class"

• Hazard Statement: A statement assigned to a hazard class and category that describes the nature of the hazards of a chemical, including, where appropriate, the degree of hazard.
• Match: "statement assigned to a hazard class and category the describes the nature and degree of hazard" (Note: "the" is a typo in the original text for "that").

• Precautionary Statement: A phrase that describes recommended measures that should be taken to minimize or prevent adverse effects resulting from exposure to a hazardous chemical, or improper storage or handling.
• Match: "phrase that describes measures that should be taken to minimize or prevent adverse effects"

• Classification: This is the process of identifying and evaluating relevant data regarding chemical hazards to determine if the chemical should be classified as hazardous under GHS criteria.
• Match: "Identification and evaluation of relevant data regarding chemical hazards and comparison to GHS criteria"

• Pictogram: A graphical composition that includes a symbol plus other graphic elements, such as a border, background pattern, or color, that is intended to convey specific information about the hazards.
• Match: "symbol plus other graphic elements intended to convey specific information about the hazards"

Structure the final matches

Using our knowledge of Occupational Safety and hazard communication, we can pair each term with its corresponding definition clearly.

Answer:

GHS Term	Correct Definition
Signal Word	indicates the relative level of severity of a hazard
Hazard Category	division of criteria within each hazard class
Hazard Statement	statement assigned to a hazard class and category the describes the nature and degree of hazard
Precautionary Statement	phrase that describes measures that should be taken to minimize or prevent adverse effects
Classification	Identification and evaluation of relevant data regarding chemical hazards and comparison to GHS criteria
Pictogram	symbol plus other graphic elements intended to convey specific information about the hazards
