when returning equipment to the proper location what should you do make sure its clean before returning it
where do dispose broken glass container labeled broken glassware

what need to be kept away from flames or sparks combustible materials such as alcohol
when heating chemicals the tube should always be directed away from people
what need to be in reach of in all times fire blanket and fire extinguisher
what do you need to know the proper use of fire blanket, extinguisher and alarm
what do you need to do before handling chemicals read the labels
what do u need to be able to recognize safety symbols
what should you never do with excess chemicals return excess chemicals to original container
why do you need to replace lids on the container some chemicals react with air or moisture in the air
if a chemical is spilled what do you need to do tell Mr. Scott and wait for his instructions
what do you do with excess chemicals you dispose of it the way your teacher has told you and should never leave unused chemicals in the sinks
what do safety symbols do tell you possible dangers and remind you to work carefully
what should you do whenever in the class follow all instructions given by teacher, and let them know if any accident occurs.

what does the lab not have time for practical joke, horseplay
what should you know the locations of fire extinguisher, fire blanket, shower, eye wash, and first aid kit
what are beakers used for used to hole liquids not to measure
crucible used to heat substances to a very high temperature
electric scale measure mass
Erlenmeyer flask used to hold liquid not for measuring, pouring liquids, combines with rubber stopper to store sample
evaporating dish to observe the process of evaporation in a controlled environment
eye dropper used to transfer small amounts of liquid
forceps used to used to grab, hold or lift particles and specimens
funnel used for pouring liquids or fine grained solids into containers
graduated cylinder measure liquids, only moderately accurate
hot plate heats up substances fairly even heat distribution
mortar and pestle used to crush or grind materials into a fine powder by hand
petri dish used to grow small bacteria cultures and microorganisms
pipette used to dispose a small amount of liquid good accuracy
retort stand used to hold objects such a test tube often used while heating
rubber stopper used on top of flasks and test tubes to trap heat, gas or particles
scalpel very sharp instrument used for dissection
spot plate allows you to conduct mini experiments in a controlled setting
test tube designed to hold small amounts of liquids for use in experiments
test tube clamp used to grab test tubes the might be hot
test tube rack used to hold test tubes
thermometer used to tell temperature (average kinetic energy of the particles)
tongs used to pick up hot things
volumetric flask measure liquids with precision and great accuracy
wire mesh used to heat things up with an even heat distribution, heat spreads throughout the mesh and does not concentrate it on a single point like a flame
Disposal Alert This symbol appears when care must be taken to dispose of materials properly
