What precaution must be taken when storing a chemical with this label?

• Store it in a dark place

• Store it in a fume cupboard

• Store it in a locked cupboard

• Store it away from any Bunsen burner

When heating solution in a boiling tube, what precaution must you take?

• Heat the solution too strongly

• Hold the boiling tube vertically

• Never use a Pyrex boiling tube to heat the solution

• Never direct the mouth of the boiling tube at your classmates

An experiment should be carried out in the fume cupboard if it involves
