Which of the following explains why the lab safety policy specifically addresses loose clothing, contact lenses, and large, loos

e, or dangling jewelry? Select one:
a. Contact with chemicals in the lab might damage these items.
b. Loose clothing and jewelry is more likely to impede movement, or accidentally knock materials over, causing a spill or other accident.
c. In the event of a spill or spray of reagent, all of these items are likely to hold the chemical close to the skin, making it harder to remove and therefore increasing the risk of injury.
d. Loose clothing or jewelry is more likely to present a fire hazard if open flames are used in the lab for any reason, or if a fire begins accidentally.
e. All of these answers are true.

Answer:

b. Loose clothing and jewelry is more likely to impede movement, or accidentally knock materials over, causing a spill or other accident.

Explanation:

Hello,

During the laboratories, a high dexterity is required, thus, such accessories,  when you move or change your duty, could touch other materials or act out of your control resulting in spillages and constricting your proper movements and skills, that is why considering the lab safety policy, we must take those artifacts away from the chemistry lab.

Best regards.

3 organisms that help prevent infections
love history [14]

Infection control is the discipline concerned with preventing nosocomial or healthcare-associated infection, a practical (rather than academic) sub-discipline of epidemiology. It is an essential, though often underrecognized and undersupported, part of the infrastructure of health care. Infection control and hospital epidemiology are akin to public health practice, practiced within the confines of a particular health-care delivery system rather than directed at society as a whole. Anti-infective agents include antibiotics, antibacterials, antifungals, antivirals and antiprotozoals.[1]

Infection control addresses factors related to the spread of infections within the healthcare setting (whether patient-to-patient, from patients to staff and from staff to patients, or among-staff), including prevention (via hand hygiene/hand washing, cleaning/disinfection/sterilization, vaccination, surveillance), monitoring/investigation of demonstrated or suspected spread of infection within a particular health-care setting (surveillance and outbreak investigation), and management (interruption of outbreaks). It is on this basis that the common title being adopted within health care is "infection prevention and control." (got from google

Which two substances are covalent compounds? * C6H12O6(s) and KI(s) C6H12O6(s) and HCl(g) KI(s) and NaCl(s) NaCl(s) and HCl(g)
Ray Of Light [21]

Answer: Option (b) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

A covalent compound is defined as the compound in which sharing of electrons take place between the combining atoms. Generally, when two or more non-metals chemically combine together the it will lead to the formation of a covalent compound.

For example, C_{6}H_{12}O_{6} and HCl is also a covalent compound.

And, a compound in which transfer of electrons occur between the combining atoms is known as an ionic compound. Whenever, a metal chemically combines with a non-metal then it will always lead to the formation of an ionic compound.

For example, KI is an ionic compound.

Thus, we can conclude that C_{6}H_{12}O_{6} and HCl are the two substances which are covalent compounds.

Why do different materials/objects have different reactions to fire?​
True [87]

Answer:

Different compounds react with oxygen differently – some contain lots of heat energy while others produce a smaller amount. The reaction with the oxygen may happen very quickly or more slowly. Amount: The amount of fuel available to burn is known as the fuel load.
