    It is always safe to wear what kind of shoes during an expirment?

    • Sandals

    • None

    • Closed toe shoes

    Correct Answer
    A. Closed toe shoes
    Explanation
    Closed toe shoes are the safest option to wear during an experiment because they provide protection to the feet. They cover the entire foot, including the toes, which reduces the risk of injury from falling objects, spills, or chemical splashes. Sandals, on the other hand, leave the toes exposed and provide minimal protection. Not wearing any shoes at all is also unsafe as it leaves the feet vulnerable to potential hazards in the lab environment. Therefore, closed toe shoes are the most appropriate choice for ensuring safety during an experiment.

    • To protect our eyes from chemicals and other things

    Correct Answer
    A. To protect our eyes from chemicals and other things
    Explanation
    The correct answer is to protect our eyes from chemicals and other things. Wearing goggles in a lab is essential to prevent any harmful substances from coming into contact with our eyes. Chemicals can cause severe damage or even blindness if they come in contact with the eyes. Goggles act as a barrier, shielding our eyes from any potential hazards such as splashes, fumes, or flying debris. It is a safety measure that ensures the well-being of individuals working in a laboratory setting.

    Correct Answer
    A. Tied up
    Explanation
    When working in a lab, it is important to tie up your hair. This is because loose hair can pose a safety hazard, as it can come into contact with chemicals, flames, or equipment, potentially causing accidents or contamination. Tying up hair ensures that it is kept away from the face and secured, reducing the risk of it getting in the way or interfering with experiments.

Fire extinguishers are designed to suppress and extinguish fires, helping to prevent them from spreading and causing further damage or harm. Therefore, having a fire extinguisher in a lab is crucial to ensure the well-being of the individuals present and to minimize potential risks.
