Chemistry 9-21-21 Lab Safety Contract & Safety Procedures

CHEMISTRY: Here is info on how to write your lab safety contract and also below is the lab safety video we will watch in class on Wednesday. The video does have a ton of info, and the thing is, you absolutely must know it – and not just for the test, but also throughout the year in lab. It’s a really good idea to watch it again and take notes as you go.

HOMEWORK: First though, lets talk about homework. (Don’t forget to also check your syllabus!!)

Lab Safety ContractSince we’ll be in lab so much, it’s important that you write your own lab safety contract. Here’s how you do it. You must have this safety contract submitted in your shared folder in order to do the Bunsen burner lab on Thursday:

      • From the first couple of pages of the Safety Packet that you got in class (or it’s also here under the Lab tab), hand write the lab safety statements as your contract.
      • They must be handwritten on notebook paper. You only have to write the first part of the rule that is bold. There are 29 in all and they almost all start with “I will…”.
      • At the end of your contract – after the last statement, hand write the following statement at the bottom: “I agree to abide by these rules.” Then sign underneath and date it.
      • Scan your final signed document as a PDF and submit it into your Chemistry Shared Folder. The assignment name is Lab Safety Contract.You must have this safety contract submitted to do lab for the rest of the year! Due Thursday!
