When using a properly stabilized balance, how should you ensure that you get the most accurate mass reading possible?

-Measure the mass of the sample at room temperature. -Close the side shields on the balance during reading

When an alarm sounds in the laboratory, it is important to respond _________ and remain ___________. Listen for any other instructions, turn off any ______________ in use, and be prepared to leave immediately.

calmly, quiet, equipment

In general, which characteristics are necessary for a location to be suitable for chemical storage?

cool, dry, dark

Changing gloves often will minimize the spread of chemicals. To properly remove gloves, first,

grasp the exterior of one glove with a gloved hand; then peel off the first glove. Then insert a bare finger between the interior edge of the second glove and the skin, and remove the second glove.

Determine the best way to deal with each of the following items that may dangle into the way during lab work.

long earrings: Remove long hair: tie back and secure flowly sleeves: tie back and secure loose bracelets: remove long necklaces: remove

In case of accidental contact with chemicals, how long should the eyes be flushed at the eyewash station?

15 minutes

What information does not need to be included a chemical waste label?

A description of the experiment the chemicals were used for

Determine when to put on disposable gloves for work in the lab.

Before handling any glassware or chemicals for the experiment

A student removes a chemical sample from a reagent bottle to be used in an experiment. What should he do with any excess chemical remaining from this sample after the experiment is complete?

Check and see if anyone else can use the chemical. If not, discard in the proper waste container.

Which chemical waste situation should always be supervised or performed by an instructor? Note that you still may need to alert your instructor about the described incident, even if you clean it up yourself

Cleaning up a broken mercury thermometer

What should you do if you are using a balance that has persistent fluctuations in mass?

Contact your TA or instructor to adjust the balance.

It is often helpful to remember the acronym PASS when using a fire extinguisher. Fill in the word that corresponds with each letter to complete the steps needed for operation of this device.

P: pull the pin A: Aim the nozzle at the base of the fire S: squeeze the lever slowly S: sweep the spray from side to side over the fire

Determine the safest option in the lab if you need your vision to be corrected

Wear corrective glasses or lenses under your safety goggles for the whole experiment, but always check with your TA or Instructor for your school's policy

Determine when you should remove your goggles in the lab room.

When everyone in the room is done handling any chemicals or glassware

When should you start a new chemical waste container in the lab?

When the contents of the current container are a couple inches below the brim of the container

Match each lab incident to the item of PPE that will protect you from it. Each item of PPE will only be used once.

While checking on a stirring solution, the solution splashes up towards your face. (goggles) While pulling an empty beaker off the shelf at the beginning of lab, it slips out of your hand onto the floor. (closed-toe shoes) While transferring a solution from a flask to a beaker, the solution accidentally spills down the front of the lab bench. (lab coat) While picking up a buret, an unknown solution left by a previous solution drips onto your hand. (gloves)

To experimentally determine Avogadro's number, you can apply a current to a metal circuit, causing the metal to lose electrons and dissolve as ions. The number of moles of electrons lost from the metal can be calculated from the _______ of the metal as well as ________ in each ion formation. The total number of electrons involved in the process can be calculated from the __________ and the individual charge of an electron. Then, Avogadro's number is the ________ divided by the ________.

mass change and molar mass the number of electrons lost total charge applied total number of electrons number of moles of electrons

In the plot to determine Avogadro's number, the x-axis should be ________ and the y-axis should be _________. The _________ of the best-fit line should be Avogadro's number.

moles of electrons number of electrons slope
