Why is lab safety and lab equipment important to learn about you ask? Well if you don’t know the rules of the lab, it could be a life or death situation!

There are many chemicals in a science lab such as: acid, mercury, chlorine, etc. Instead of putting your nose to the container and taking a big breath of the chemical, you could waft, or wave your hand above the container and take a small sniff.

If a you are heating a test tube above a Bunsen burner, you need to use a test tube holder. That way you don’t burn your fingers. Also, as it is heating up, point away from your partners.

Don’t bother you classmates near you. They could spill something and get seriously injured!

Pay attention in the lab or Karma with get you!!
