As a chemical engineering undergrad, I can say with certainty that these are all true. The hydroxide in the acid waste bin is extra funny for me because last year a TA put HCl in the basic waste carboy (it was a plastic carboy) filled with ammonia and sealed it. nobody was injured, but lets just say that the carboy exploded from the pressure and sprayed the waste everywhere.
