WelcomeWelcome to VVC’s Chemistry 100 Lab! This will be your first introduction to a Chemistry laboratory. There are a number of safety items to go through before you start your first experiment, so let’s get started.

Safety rules must be followed All safety rules must be followed at all
times. Chemistry is fun but it could be very dangerous if you do not pay attention to what you are doing.
Do not mess around for any reason while in this laboratory.You don’t want this tohappen to you.

Aprons must be worn at all times while performing a wet lab, which is a lab with chemicals involved.
Safety goggles must be worn at all times when performing a wet lab. Your lab text and instructor will let you know when goggles are required and may be removed.
Aprons

Aprons In room 36 the aprons are located in
the closet near the back of the room.

Aprons In room 38 the aprons are located
in 4 drawers throughout the room.

Goggles Safety goggles must have a lip on the
top of the goggles so as to prevent liquid from spilling into your eyes from the top.

Goggles Safety goggles cannot be tinted any
color.

Goggles If you have OSHA certified safety
glasses, talk to your instructor about whether they will be permitted.
![Page 10: Chemistry safety Part 1](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062315/56816621550346895dd97606/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Goggles VVC will not provide safety goggles –
you must bring your own. VVC’s bookstore does sell them.
You must have your goggles with you on the first day of lab.

Accidents Report all accidents, no matter how
small, to your instructor. This information may be used to further develop and/or refine existing safety procedures.

Health Women: if you are pregnant, please inform
your instructor. You need to give a list of the chemicals that we will be handling to your doctor, and let us know if you are not allowed to perform an experiment with a doctor’s note.
![Page 19: Chemistry safety Part 1](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062315/56816621550346895dd97606/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Health If you have a disability and/or are in DSPS for
any reason, please inform your instructor. Accommodations can be made if needed.
![Page 20: Chemistry safety Part 1](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062315/56816621550346895dd97606/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Health & Safety Smoking is not permitted in the laboratory.
![Page 21: Chemistry safety Part 1](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062315/56816621550346895dd97606/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Health & Safety Eating and drinking, even water, is not allowed in
the laboratory. Also, do not chew gum.
These rules exist because chemical vapors can get into the food, drink, or even gum. If you absolutely need to eat, drink, smoke, or use the restroom, inform your instructor.
![Page 22: Chemistry safety Part 1](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062315/56816621550346895dd97606/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Emergency Equipment In each room there is emergency equipment
to be used in case of injury or accident.
![Page 23: Chemistry safety Part 1](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062315/56816621550346895dd97606/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Emergency Equipment Fire extinguishers are to
be used in case of an extreme, uncontrolled fire. Do not use on a person. If possible, please allow your instructor to use the fire extinguisher.
![Page 24: Chemistry safety Part 1](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062315/56816621550346895dd97606/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Emergency Equipment Fire blankets are for smothering a fire without
getting burned yourself. For an item on fire, pull the fire blanket completely out of the holder and place the fire blanket over the fire.
See here for a demonstration
Pull out using straps

Emergency Equipment For a person on fire, wrap the person with the
fire blanket until the fire is out.
![Page 26: Chemistry safety Part 1](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062315/56816621550346895dd97606/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
Emergency Equipment The eye wash stations are to be used if a
chemical or object gets into the eyes. Bring the person to the station and physically hold the person’s eyes open for at least 15 minutes.
![Page 27: Chemistry safety Part 1](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062315/56816621550346895dd97606/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
Emergency Equipment The shower station is used in
case chemicals are dumped all over you. Remove all affected clothing and stand under it for at least 15 minutes. Do not pull the handle unless you absolutely need to use it – we cannot turn it off easily and it makes a mess.
![Page 28: Chemistry safety Part 1](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062315/56816621550346895dd97606/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
Emergency Equipment If any chemical is hazardous for any reason,
the laboratory manual or the instructor should tell you how it is harmful. But to be safe, avoid getting any chemicals on your skin. If a chemical does come into contact with your skin, rinse it with cold water for at least 2-5 minutes. Soap is unnecessary.
![Page 29: Chemistry safety Part 1](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062315/56816621550346895dd97606/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
Emergency Equipment First Aid kits are
available though may not necessarily be in the room. If you are cut or slightly burned, let your instructor know and you will be taken care of.

Emergency Equipment The emergency phones
are connected directly to campus police. You do not have to dial. Please be careful not to accidentally bump the phone off the hook.

Emergency Equipment If you happen to forget
any of these rules, there are posters in each room to remind you.
