Question
- what should be done if acid is accidentally splashed on bare skin? (1 point)
apply a weak base to the area
place oil on the site of contact
use an eyewash fountain to clean the area
flush the affected area with lots of water
When acid splashes on bare skin, the first - aid measure is to dilute the acid. Flushing with lots of water helps to wash away the acid and reduce its concentration on the skin, minimizing damage. Applying a weak base can cause a secondary reaction and may be harmful. Placing oil does not neutralize or remove the acid. An eyewash fountain is for eye - related acid splashes, not for skin.
