Answer

a

Explanation

Silane is a highly reactive and flammable gas. When exposed to air, it can ignite and cause a fire or explosion. Therefore, it is classified as a combustible dust. Pyrophoric substances are those that can ignite spontaneously in contact with air. Simple asphyxiants are substances that can displace oxygen in the air, leading to asphyxiation. Aspiration refers to the inhalation of foreign materials into the lungs. Among the given options, silane is best described as a combustible dust.
