Laboratory Safety for Chemistry Students is uniquely designed to accompany students throughout their four-year undergraduate education and beyond, progressively teaching them the skills and knowledge they need to learn their science and stay safe while working in any lab. This new principles-based approach treats lab safety as a distinct, essential discipline of chemistry, enabling you to instill and sustain a culture of safety among students. As students progress through the text, they'll learn about laboratory and chemical hazards, about routes of exposure, about ways to manage these hazards. Content: Laboratory safety for chemistry students; contents; preface: to the students; to the instructor; acknowledgments; acronyms; chapter 1 principles, ethics, and practices; chapter 2 emergency response; chapter 3 understanding and communicating about laboratory hazards; chapter 4 recognizing laboratory hazards: toxic substances and biological agents; chapter 5 recognizing laboratory hazards: physical hazards; chapter 6 risk assessment; chapter 7 minimizing, controlling, and managing hazards; chapter 8 chemical management: inspections, storage, wastes, and security; index.
