In the below picture, you can see many of the common tools used for safety and accident handling procedures. Sinks are located throughout the classroom, and there is soap on the east counter.
Several rules are enforced for the safety of everyone during experiments, some are listed below:
- No Running
- No Open-toed Shoes
- No Eating or Drinking
- No Messing Around in General
- Do Nothing Involving Reactions Without Permission
Other ways to stay safe in the Chemistry classroom is knowing basic procedures. For example, if you're on fire, stop, drop, and roll! Common sense is also required to minimize bodily damage. If you're burning from acid on your skin, wash it off first, then tell the teacher.
W.H.M.I.S.
