4. Lab Safety
In every lab class there is always the danger that you may expose yourself to injury.
We are going to go over the basic lab safety rules to keep you safe.

5. Goggles
Goggles should always be worn when chemicals are being heated or mixed. This will protect your eyes from chemicals that spatter or explode. Goggles should also be worn if there is any way that something could damage your eyes.

6. Chemical Contact with Skin
Protective gloves are worn whenever you are handling chemicals. If you happen to spill a chemical on your skin, notify your teacher immediately.

7. Beginning the lab
Do not touch materials until instructed to do so. Read all directions BEFORE starting. LISTEN to Directions

8. Beginning the lab Wear protective eyewear when appropriate.
Wear all forms of protective coverings when appropriate
Always tie back long hair, remove loose jewelry, and secure loose clothing
Let your teacher know if you have any medical conditions that may affect your ability to perform the lab.

9. Clean Up all Messes Immediately
Your lab area should be spotless when you start experimenting and spotless when you leave. If not, clean it!
Wash your hands!

10. No Eating or Drinking During the Lab
NEVER eat, drink, smell or taste anything in the lab.

11. Horse Play…Out!!
Horseplay can lead to chemical spills, accidental fires, broken containers, and damaged equipment. Never throw anything to another person, no wrestling, punching or shoving.

12. Fire
If there is a fire in the room notify the teacher immediately. Don’t try to put the fire out yourself.

13. Better Safe Than Sorry
If you have questions, or if you are not sure how to handle a particular chemical, procedure, or part of an experiment, ask for help from your teacher. If you do not feel comfortable doing something then don’t do it. Never try anything new, always ask your teacher for permission before you try a new idea
