Safety in Science labs& particularly chemistry labs is very important to prevent any disaster.

Safety signs are collection of public domain images.

Lecture 1: Safety &Gaseous state

Science Laboratory Safety Signs.

Do not bring any food or drink into the laboratory and do not eat, drink, or smoke there.

Do not smell or taste any chemicals or other lab samples for any reason.

Never work alone or unsupervised. Wear the appropriate gloves, safety glasses

or goggles, and a clean lab coat when handling chemical

Wash your hands before you exit the laboratory.
