Question

Tara heated a beaker on a hot plate. Then, she set the solution on the countertop to cool. Her lab partner, Molly, did not realize that the beaker was hot and touched it with her bare fingers. What should Molly do to treat her burn? options: A put her fingers in her mouth B hold her fingers under cold running water C rub butter, oil or lotion on her fingers D wave her fingers through the air

Answer 1

I would go with choice C) rub some treatment on it because A) is just plain useless since putting your fingers in your mouth is getting u germs so no, not B) because yes even though cold is the opposite of hot, u don't know what type of burn she may have so u can actually hurt yourself more with the water or even be infected, and definitely not D) because that wont really solve it, its best to see a doctor or professional who can help you.
