Which three statements below relate to safety precautions specific to this experiment? It is ok to use 4-Aminophenol to clean the bench 4-Aminophenol is toxic and fatal if inhaled. Avoid breathing the solid. Avoid contact with skin, eyes and clothing. Use in fume hood. Wear gloves. Toxic to aquatic environment. Do not dispose down the sink. Ethanol is not volatile or flammable Acetic anhydride is toxic, corrosive and a lachrymator (causes tears). Wear gloves, dispense and use it in a fume hood, and avoid contact with skin, eyes, and clothing. If anhydride gets on your skin, wash it off immediately with copious amounts of water. If anhydride gets on your gloves, rinse and remove the gloves and check skin. Ethanol is volatile, toxic and flammable. Acetic anhydride is non-toxic and can be handled with gloves and outside the fume hood.

Match: 1. KOH 2. Sulfuric acid 3. aluminum 4. water A. Eye: Causes severe eye burns. May cause irreversible eye injury. May cause permanent corneal opacification. The severity of injury depends on the concentration of the solution and the duration of exposure. Skin: Causes skin burns. The severity of injury depends on the concentration of the solution and the duration of exposure. Ingestion: May cause severe and permanent damage to the digestive tract. Causes gastrointestinal tract burns. Inhalation: May cause irritation of the respiratory tract with burning pain in the nose and throat, coughing, wheezing, shortness of breath and pulmonary edema. Chronic: Prolonged or repeated skin contact may cause dermatitis. Prolonged or repeated inhalation may cause nosebleeds, nasal congestion, erosion of the teeth, perforation of the nasal septum, chest pain and bronchitis. Prolonged or repeated eye contact may cause conjunctivitis. B. Eye:Nonirritating to the eyes. Skin: Nonirritating to the skin. Ingestion: No hazard expected in normal industrial use. Inhalation: No hazard expected in normal industrial use. Chronic: None C. Eye Contact: Check for and remove any contact lenses. In case of contact, immediately flush eyes with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes. Skin Contact: Wash with soap and water. Cover the irritated skin with an emollient. Get medical attention if irritation develops. Serious Skin Contact: Not available. Inhalation: If inhaled, remove to fresh air. Serious Inhalation: Not available. Ingestion: Do NOT induce vomiting unless directed to do so by medical personnel. Never give anything by mouth to an unconscious person. D. Potential Health Effects Eye: Causes severe eye burns. May cause irreversible eye injury. Contact may cause ulceration of the conjunctiva and cornea. Eye damage may be delayed. Skin: Causes skin burns. May cause deep, penetrating ulcers of the skin. Ingestion: Harmful if swallowed. May cause circulatory system failure. May cause perforation of the digestive tract. Inhalation: Harmful if inhaled. Irritation may lead to chemical pneumonitis and pulmonary edema. Chronic: Prolonged or repeated skin contact may cause dermatitis. Prolonged or repeated eye contact may cause conjunctivitis.
