42
Q

It is placed on the support ring that is attached to the retort stand between the Bunsen burner and the beakers in order to support the beakers or other glassware or flasks during heating.

A

Wire Gauze

43
Q

It is a key concern in any science laboratory but more particularly in the chemistry laboratory

44
Q

Our guide to working as safely as possible in the laboratory is summarized in a simple paradigm:

A

Recognize hazards.
Assess the risk of hazards.
Minimize the risk of hazards.
Prepare for emergencies.

45
Q

It is their responsibility to keep the laboratory safe.

A

you, your classmate, laboratory assistant, instructor

46
Q

It is a collective responsibility of everyone working in the laboratory.

A

The prevention of any untoward incident in the laboratory

47
Q

The most responsible person during an experiment

A

you or the one performing the experiment

48
Q

It is your responsibility to

A

to Minimize the Risk of Hazards

49
Q

When working in the laboratory, remember to:

A
  1. Conduct Proper Behavior
  2. Wear Proper Laboratory Attire
  3. Safe Handling of Chemicals
  4. Proper Housekeeping
  5. Proper Hygiene
  6. Emergency Preparedness
50
Q

Emergency Preparedness (5)

Become thoroughly acquainted with the location and use of safety equipment and facilities such as:

A

a. Exits
b. Evacuation Route
c. Safety Shower
d. Eyewash Fountain
e. First Aid Kit

51
Q

This is a way to get out of the building if there is an emergency such as fire or earthquake. In an emergency, the main evacuation route is through the front door. The detail of this route is put near elevators, stairways and in main hallways so guests know how to get out in an emergency.

A

b. Evacuation Route

Q

This is an equipment designed to wash a person’s head and body which has come into contact with hazardous chemicals. This can also be used in extinguishing fires or to flush contaminants off clothing.

A

Safety Shower

53
Q

This equipment is used to flush the eyes with water when dust, irritants or chemicals enters the eye.

A

Eyewash Fountain

54
Q

It is a potential source of danger or harm.

55
Q

It is the combination of the possibility of the occurrence of an unwanted incident, the severity of its consequences and the frequency of exposure to the hazard.

56
Q

Although chemicals are considered as ___, they will not present __ to us if we learn to recognize them and minimize their risk.

A

hazards, risk

57
Q

Chemical hazards are divided into three broad categories:

A

physical, health, and environmental hazard

58
Q

Physical Hazards

A

Explosive, Flammable, Oxidizing, Compress Gas, Corrosive to Metals

59
Q

Health Hazards

A

Toxic, Skin Irritant, Acute Toxicity, Respiratory Sensitization

60
Q

Environmental Hazard

A

Environmental and Aquatic Hazard

61
Q

There are four broad subclasses of hazards:

A
  1. Toxicity
  2. Flammability
  3. Corrosivity
  4. Reactivity
62
Q

It is a chemical that can cause injury to a living organism.

A

a toxic substance

63
Q

Toxicity (factors that determine how a living organism will react to a chemical when it enters your body)

A

a. Route of entry
b. Dose
c. Duration
d. Physical State of Toxic Substance

64
Q

Route of entry.

There are 4 ways a chemical can enter the body.

A

a. Inhalation
b. Ingestion
c. Absorption
d. Injection

65
Q

this is when the chemical enters the respiratory tract by breathing

A

Inhalation

66
Q

this is when a chemical enters the digestive tract through the mouth

67
Q

this occurs when a chemical comes in contact with the skin, thus, dermal absorption of the chemical may occur

A

Absorption

68
Q

this occurs when a chemical enters the body through a cut made in the skin by a sharp contaminated object

69
Q

is defined as the amount of toxic substance received at one time

70
Q

The duration and frequency of the exposure is classified as:

A

Acute Exposure and Chronic Exposure

71
Q

this is characterized by the rapid assimilation of the toxic substance in one or more doses within 24hours

A

Acute Exposure

72
Q

this is characterized by repeated exposures, typically of low doses, with a duration measured in months or years

A

Chronic Exposure
