Activity #3 Lab Environment and Safety in The Lab

The document summarizes a science lab assignment on lab safety and procedures. It includes questions to test understanding of appropriate and inappropriate lab behaviors. The summary identifies two students, Heather and Jennifer, who started an experiment without reading directions since they had been absent. As a result, their experiment was incorrectly conducted and yielded incorrect results. The summary concludes they should have asked the teacher for help or explanation given they missed the prior class discussion, and that not following instructions led to an unsuccessful experiment.

1. Compare Evelyn’s technique with Kwan’s technique. Whose


technique is the correct one? And why?

Evelyn’s technique is the correct one

Why ….. because she is using goggles , gloves ,apron

total They should be following instruction should be wearing goggles , apron
(Hint: Sometimes they are not breaking a gloves etc… and should not be smelling the chemicals and tasting them or
safety rule, but they are doing something that doing on authorized experiment
is still not correct when you use common
sense.)

For the following scenario, write down the rule being broken and state what the student should have done
differently so to avoid breaking the rule. 3 points total

Example: Cindy was playing with her friend and as a result a test tube broke. Carefully, she picked up pieces
with one hand and placed them in her other hand.
Answer: Rules being broken- 1. Physical Safety- Handle all apparatus and material carefully and correctly. 2.
You Should Never -Engage in practical jokes, horse play. 3. Report immediately, any broken or damaged
apparatus. 4. Dispose of waste correctly.
-Firstly, Cindy should have not engaged in any type of playing with her friend. Also, she should have reported
the broken test tube immediately to the teacher. Cindy should have disposed of the broken test tube correctly by
using a dirt picker and a broom rather than her hands because she could have cut herself.
Scenario #1: Heather and Jennifer were absent the day before when the investigation was discussed. They
started doing the lab not taking time to read the directions. At the end they did not get the results they needed
and their entire lab experiment was incorrect.
Answer: rules being broken

1. They should ask the teacher to help them or explain to them

2. They should follow instruction

3. Because of they not following instruction all the experiment came out wrong.

didn’t took time to read the instruction . At the end they did not get the results they needed and their entire lab
experiment was incorrect
