Dear students welcome to the General Chemistry Laboratory. During this semester each
student will do 6 experiments as part of the course requirement. The following rules and
regulations will be followed by the students in the general chemistry laboratory.

1. The safety of our students in the General Chemistry Lab is very important . Your
clothes should cover your entire body. In the labs open-toe shoes, sandals, babets,
skirts, shorts are not allowed(The skin between the top of the shoe and the bottom of
the pant leg must be fully covered by clothing). If you come to lab by wearing these

chance to make-up the experiment.
