    If you see something dangerous during class, tell you, teacher?

    • When you have time.

    • Immediately.

    Correct Answer
    A. Immediately.
    Explanation
    The correct answer is "Immediately" because if you see something dangerous during class, it is important to inform your teacher right away. This is because immediate action may be required to ensure the safety of everyone in the classroom. Waiting until you have time, after class, or at the end of the day may result in a delay in addressing the dangerous situation, which could potentially lead to harm or further escalation of the danger.

Long hair can easily get caught in equipment or chemicals, posing a risk to both the individual and the experiment. Therefore, it is necessary to tie back or secure long hair to ensure safety and maintain a clean working environment.

    Walking is the correct way to move around the laboratory because it promotes safety and minimizes the risk of accidents. Running, hurrying, or skipping can increase the chances of slipping, tripping, or colliding with equipment or other individuals. Walking allows for better control and awareness of one's surroundings, ensuring a safer environment for both oneself and others in the laboratory.

    A. Are extra dangerous
    Explanation
    Broken glassware poses a higher risk compared to intact glassware. The sharp edges and fragments of broken glass can cause cuts and injuries to the user. Additionally, broken glassware can also result in contamination of substances or materials being handled, leading to further hazards. Therefore, it is important to avoid using broken glassware to ensure the safety of individuals and to prevent any potential accidents or harm.

    If acid is splashed on your clothing wash at once with?

    • Soap.

    • Oil.

    • Water.

    • Alcohol.

    Correct Answer
    A. Water.
    Explanation
    If acid is splashed on your clothing, it is important to wash it at once with water. Water helps to dilute the acid and remove it from the clothing fibers. Using soap or oil may not be as effective in neutralizing the acid and could potentially cause further damage to the clothing. Alcohol is also not recommended as it may react with the acid and cause additional harm. Therefore, water is the safest and most appropriate option for washing off acid from clothing.

    • Paper towels.

    • Water.

    • Alcohol.

    • Other materials.

    Correct Answer
    A. Water.
    Explanation
    Water is the best option for cleaning spilled acid because it can dilute and neutralize the acid, reducing its corrosive properties. Acid spills can be dangerous and cause burns or damage to surfaces, so it is important to clean them properly. Paper towels may not be effective in cleaning the spill, while alcohol or other materials may react with the acid and cause further hazards. Therefore, water is the safest and most suitable choice for cleaning up spilled acid.

    To put out the fire in a person's hair or clothes, use?

    • Fire blanket.

    • Chimicals.

    • Fire extinguisher.

    • Water

    Correct Answer
    A. Fire extinguisher.
    Explanation
    A fire extinguisher is the most appropriate tool to use in order to put out a fire in a person's hair or clothes. Fire blankets are typically used for smothering fires on surfaces, while chemicals may not be safe or effective for use on a person. Water can exacerbate certain types of fires, such as grease fires, and may cause further harm to the individual. A fire extinguisher, on the other hand, is specifically designed to suppress fires by releasing substances that can quickly extinguish flames.
