Laboratory Safety Lab
Lab Safety Report The lab safety video has provided valuable information to better prepare me to be safe in lab and go by the Seminole State College Lab protocol. I watched the lab video link-http://flash.seminolestate.edu/vod/chemistry/startingwithsafety/startingwithsafety.html, and learned lab safety. The topics addressed were dressing appropriately, how to handle chemicals safely, Bunsen burner and glassware safety, and the emergency equipment available in the lab. I feel I have been informed of the proper procedures and rules to stay safe and protect my classmates, teacher and my personal safety in the laboratory setting. Before entering a lab one should consider the rules that need to be applied. The attire considered necessary are proper googles, long pants, long sleeves (not too loose), jewelry removed, gloves (if required), and apron (if necessary). Also a student is responsible for their behavior and should store personal items, not fool around, and never bring food and drinks to the lab. Then a lab can be conducted in a safe manner with the additional awareness provided in the following topics. …show more content…
When using acids or bases in a lab proper eyewear, gloves, and aprons should be worn if necessary. The chemicals should be kept from the eyes and skin, and if happen to get in eyes use an eye wash or shower immediately. When mixing chemicals: read and reread labels, only mix chemicals when told to by teacher and use the proper sized (usually smaller) container.

    Virtual Lab: Treating Water

    I enjoyed doing the virtual lab. I treat water as an occupation so I understood how and what to add to treat the water. If you have a low (acidic) pH then you should add sodium hydroxide. If you have total coliforms, you should chlorinate before and after treatment. Often, we test houses for total coliforms and e. coli. If the bacteria is positive, then we chlorinate the well. After we make sure all the chlorine is throughout the house, we let it sit for 24 hours to disinfect the pipes and the well. Then we flush the system so there is no more chlorine and resample the bacteria. If you have high nitrates or pesticides, then you should activate carbon and chlorinate at the end. If you have high metals, then you should add chlorine at…
