##  Chemistry of Hazardous Materials (Sixth Edition) 



You'll find this one a bit less expensive than other references. No, it's not everything you need to know, but it's a great guide to the chemistry that emergency responders need to know, and the author doesn't assume that you have some sort of scientific Ph.D. By Eugene Meyer.

This text covers basic chemistry for emergency responders, guiding students who are often non-science majors through the process of understanding the chemical properties that make materials hazardous.
