LAB SAFETY VIOLATIONS - STORY
LABORATORY SAFETY RULES
- Read the following story;
- on notebook paper list all lab safety violations, number each one.
- highlight on this handout the broken safety violations.
- DUE: 9/10/2013, TUESDAY
Ryan and John sprinted to a lab station, yelling, “We got this station!” Once at the station, Ryan asked John if he read the lab last night for homework to which John replied, “Nope, did you?” Ryan responded to John’s question by saying, “Are you serious, I never read anything for this class.” They both looked at each other and decided to just start the lab. “Ryan, you go get the chemicals and I’ll light up the Bunsen burner,” said John. Even though all of their classmates went to the safety goggle cabinet prior to starting the lab, Ryan and John decided not to go. John said in a smug way, “Forget the goggles; we are too cool to wear those things.” Ryan walked up to the front lab bench where the chemicals were, removed the lids, picked up the flasks, and started to smell the different chemicals. “I am just going to bring back the ones that smell the best,” said Ryan. Little did Ryan know that one of the chemicals was sulfuric acid, and after taking a deep breath, he thought that his nose hairs were on fire. “Hey Ryan, you didn’t even put the lid back on,” yelled Mrs. Remis. Ryan ignored Mrs. Remis and somehow he made it back to his lab station without passing out. Upon making his way back to the lab station, Ryan saw John trying to light the Bunsen burner. “John, John, your hair!” Ryan yelled in an excited voice.
“That was a close one,” said John. “My mother has been telling me to get a haircut. I guess I really need one now that I just lost a big chunk of my hair.” The two partners then proceeded with the lab. Ryan reached across the flame in order to get a beaker filled with acetic acid while John grabbed a test tube to put the chemical in. “Oops!” said Ryan, “I just spilled some of the chemicals on the tabletop. I’ll just wipe it up with my shirt sleeve.” “Should you tell Mrs. Remis?” John asked. “No, it isn’t a big deal, I already wiped it up,” Ryan nonchalantly said. A few seconds later, Ryan said, “Man, my arm is warm.” In an excited voice, John said, “Oh my Gosh, look at your shirt, there is a hole in it. That chemical you wiped up must have eaten through your shirt. How is your arm?” Ryan said, “It hurts a little, but I will be fine.” “Should we tell Mrs. Remis?” asked John. “No, I’ll be fine,” Ryan said confidently. The lab partners then poured some chemicals into a test tube to begin heating. “Ryan, do you see that crack in the test tube?” questioned John. “Who cares,” Ryan whispered. “As long as the test tube is not leaking, it must be fine.” The boys proceeded to heat the test tube. Ryan asked, “Is anything happening?” “I don’t know, point the test tube in this direction so that I can look into the opening,” John replied. “Maybe we should just add some of the other chemicals if nothing is happening yet,” said Ryan. “Should we ask Mrs. Remis?” wondered John. “No, she is annoying,” Ryan smugly said. Ryan then continued, “She will first ask us if we read all of the procedures and then he will say, ‘I put a lot of time and effort into writing these labs for you guys and the least you could do is read them. If you have read it and then have additional questions, I would be more than happy to help you, but you have to do your part first.’ I certainly don’t want to hear all of that, do you?” “Definitely not, I hate when teachers go ranting,” said John. The lab partners proceeded to add some random chemicals to the test tube. Shortly thereafter, the contents of the test tube began to bubble over. “Wow that was amazing!” Ryan yelled. “Yeah, that was pretty cool, but it is everywhere,” John said in a concerned voice. “Good thing we have all of these papers laying around our lab station because most of the chemicals have just spilled onto them. We can just throw all of the papers into the garbage,” Ryan said confidently. “Hey, it got onto my planner,” John said in an annoyed voice. “Who cares, just go to guidance and buy another one for four dollars and fifty cents. Oh, I’m sorry, I mean you can get one for four dollars and Fitty Cent. Get it, Get it!” Ryan said in a joking manner. The students began to clean up the spilled chemicals when John said, “This stuff smells really good, kind of like lemonade.” “Well, if it smells like lemonade, it must be lemonade, just taste it,” Ryan said in a convincing manner. John proceeded to taste the chemical mixture by sipping what was left in the test tube. “Oh man, the bell is going to ring soon,” Ryan said in a rushed voice. “Just leave it, I really want to go to lunch because it is Taco Day,” John said. “Are you sure?” Ryan questioned. “Yeah let’s just get out of here; the next class is going to be doing the lab again anyway, so they can clean it up,” John said. Without washing their hands, Ryan and John left the classroom and headed to lunch.

LAB SAFETY DIAGRAM WITH QUESTIONS
Complete this hand-out. Due: 9/10
PRACTICING SCIENCE SAFETY
Below are
examples of people who are not being safe in the science lab. After each
description, identify the one best science safety rule that is being broken by
writing the number of the rule from the “Science Safety in Mrs. Remis’ Lab”
handout.
1. During a lab activity, Fred spilled some water
on the floor. When the next class came in, someone slipped on the floor.
RULE # _______
2. When Jenny was trying to read a liquid
measurement on a graduated cylinder, she had difficulty seeing because her
goggles kept fogging up. To help her see better, she put her goggles up onto
her forehead until she was able to read and record the measurement.
RULE # _______
3. Chris just came from lunch and couldn’t find the

LAB EQUIPMENT & SAFETY - REVIEW
Professor Absent-Mind recently moved his chemistry lab. He has a tendency to be somewhat relaxed in his organizational skills; in other words, he has NONE! He does, however, have chemistry students that have graciously volunteered to help him organize the lab. The only issue is that the Professor has been called to go on a research study in the Amazon Forest, and has left you in charge of identifying and organizing all of the laboratory equipment. You have been given a list & 24 pictures of lab equipment that the professor has in his collection. Follow the instructions carefully given below for each of the following activities.
Before you begin your task, I need to express the importance of LAB SAFETY!!! Please take this information seriously to protect yourself and your lab partners!!!
