What is an air gap used for in pesticide application?

To allow air circulation in storage rooms
To maintain proper chemical ratios
To prevent back-siphoning into water supplies
To separate different types of pesticides

The correct answer is: To prevent back-siphoning into water supplies

An air gap is used in pesticide application to prevent back-siphoning into water supplies. This is important to ensure that pesticides do not contaminate water sources and cause harm to humans and the environment. Option A is incorrect because air gaps are not used for air circulation in storage rooms, as they primarily serve to protect water sources. Option B is incorrect because while maintaining proper chemical ratios is important for effective pesticide application, it is not the main purpose of an air gap. Option D is also incorrect as air gaps are not used to separate different types of pesticides, but rather to prevent cross contamination or contamination of water sources.
