-sharp
-heavy
Discuss 3 different precautions you should follow while working through the
procedures in this lab investigation.

Q. A lab group is working on a Lab about the physical properties of minerals. A student is
testing for the hardness of a mineral using a thin glass plate. While holding the glass
plate in his hand and trying to scratch it with the sample the glass breaks and cuts the
student’s hand. Another student uses hydrochloric acid to test for the presence of
calcite she accidentally spills some acid on the table and hand. A third student is
working with a mineral sample and is sure that it is halite (rock salt). To test for halite
(salt) he tastes the sample. Discuss the (many) problems this lab group encountered
while completing the mineral tests.
-safety hazards
-inappropriate testing methods
-chemical exposure
-Unreliable and unsafe identification methods
Q. How would your lab group have done the procedures differently to make this a safer
Lab'?
To make the lab safer, the group should: Provide safety training and follow protocols. Use
appropriate mineral testing tools. Avoid unsafe methods like tasting minerals or using
inappropriate chemicals. Handle chemicals properly and clean up spills promptly. Be prepared
to respond to accidents and injuries.
Q. If you were part of this lab group dealing with these problems how would you handle
each of the "accidents” as they occurred?
If I were part of the lab group, I would: Provide immediate first aid for the cut hand and report
the incident. Evacuate the area and follow protocols for cleaning up the acid spill. Interrupt the
student from tasting the mineral and educate about the hazards involved in such actions.
Q. Directions: Identify the inappropriate safety procedure in each cartoon.
The man is pointing the rubber band to his face.
They are making him smell or taste the acid or chemical.
