Hank takes a break from the desk to bring you to the lab in order to demonstrate some important points about the practical side of chemistry – experimentation in the laboratory. You’ll learn what to wear in the lab, how to dispose of chemicals safely, how to avoid the most common accidents, how to pour solutions properly, what the HazMat diamond means, what an MSDS is, and how to use a fume hood. And as a reward for sticking with him through this maybe less-than-thrilling lecture, you’ll see Hank subject himself to an exciting piece of safety apparatus.

Kids Science Experiment – Candle & Water
Watching this while being sad because in my school we have amazing biology, physics and chemistry labs,but they are just there.All preference is given to theory.We just copy down experiments in our practical manual without actually doing them in the summer holidays
Amelia Bedilia and the chemistry lab

My college doesn't have those.
We have to use our mouths
And yes.
I did accidentally get something in there.
What happens when you get a tiny bit of 1M NaOH into your thumb because a needle puncture, but immediately 'push back' the blood out of the wound?
Great video! FYI: Pulmonary is misspelled at 4:41.
I accidentally poured a bit of HCl on my hand in 7th grade. Luckily it was extremely diluted and all I felt was a little tingling burn like an ant bite and then I washed it off
HANK YOU ARE SOOO AWESOME
I remember watching this a few years back and now as a chemistry major I still go back to this video every now and then to tell people about the broken pipette/rod type of injury. Thank you so much for making this. 🙂
Don't know if anyone is reading this, but here's another tip- never dilute concentrated aqueous acid by simply adding water to it! Instead, add water to your beaker (or whatever type of equipment you're using) first and THEN pipette the acid into it. Otherwise, the first few droplets of water might react and heat up very quickly and end up splashing and causing burns. Be safe and stay curious!
2:02 LOL you hear whoever is filming laugh in the background
who else has to watch this in summer school :/

5:37 omg that is so useful i didnt know about that
Best crash course video ever!!
I learnt how to bath
So.. no Diphoterine in 2013 hah? 🙂
Ha, you say don't pipette by mouth. I've gotten both oxalic acid and HCl in my mouth.
Sorcery, Witchcraft, Alchemy, Chemistry…..Destruction of the Earth. Wonderful Family Tree and Heritage.
Super video, but you're going to want to hold that pipette much nearer the top before putting it in the pi-pump or it'll break and go through your hand. Wish I had a nickel for every student who cut themselves by doing it the wrong way almost immediately after being shown.
… so we're not supposed to stick a pipette full of deadly corrosive acid in our mouth?
Hey there internet,
My chem teacher created chlorine as a by product of some experiment and I took it like a fume hood. My nose bled and I was sick for 2 days. Yay!!
says sleeves are a total disaster, right after that he says i like to go long sleeve…
7:59 is where u want to skip to, believe me
One of the first things I noticed, was the restraint on the cylinder tanks… Each tank should be restrained individually. Just my safety professional opinion …. make your safety video, assuring all items in the background meet safety regulations! 🙂
8:08 "THAT'S A LOT OF DAMAGE"
I flush my pee
I probably should not
My pee is brown
My chem lab teacher went to college with him
Lil Racoon gang timg
noah hampson yessss
ur traaaaaaashhhhh
booooooooooo
hi its noah 🙂
cyka its linus tech tips hecc'n brother
xd
Great. Thank you.
It's great

I cringed when he mimicked the glass rod going through his hand, especially after having seen the cartoon image.
