Lab Safety


This is Sulfuric Acid on the INSIDE of my goggles in Chemistry Lab. Mohammed tripped an knocked over a beaker, which then splashed onto me. Sulfuric acid got in my hair and then started dripping down inside my goggles and then into my left eye. Some got in my mouth too. When I realized what happened I stuck my head in the sink and started flushing out my eye and my hair and freaking out. Dr. Gist made me go to the bathroom and wash my face a couple of times. I'm fine now. My skin was a little irritated and my eye was dry. I think I'm going to start wearing the goggles that suction to my face from now on.
