Explanation:

To solve this lab safety scavenger hunt, we identify each tool based on its use:

Use	Name of tool	Location (example)
2. Protects eyes from chemicals & sharp objects.	Safety Goggles	On lab benches (e.g., B)
3. Used to wash chemicals off of hands.	Sink (with soap)	Lab corner (e.g., C)
4. Wrapped around person or thing on fire.	Fire Blanket	Wall-mounted (e.g., D)
5. Pushed to turn off all lab station gas, electricity, & water	Emergency Shut - Off Button	Near lab stations (e.g., E)
6. Washes chemicals off of clothing and skin	Safety Shower	Near lab exit (e.g., F)
7. Rinses chemicals out of eyes	Eye Wash Station	Near lab stations (e.g., G)
8. Pull pin, Aim, Squeeze, & Pass over fire	Fire Extinguisher	Wall - mounted (e.g., H)
9. Used to call school receptionist to notify and ask for emergency help.	Telephone	Office area (e.g., I)
10. Fastest exit to safety. (Used during all fires & firedrills)	Fire Exit	Lab door (e.g., J)
11. Pulled to alarm school & fire department of uncontrolled fire.	Fire Alarm Pull Station	Hallway (e.g., K)
12. Used to tie hair back	Hair Tie (or Scrunchie)	Personal (or lab supply area, e.g., L)
13. Used to protect feet	Safety Shoes (or Lab Boots)	Personal (or lab storage, e.g., M)
14. If a test tube were broken you would need to put it here.	Broken Glass Container	Lab corner (e.g., N)

for Each Tool:

1. Lab Apron: Shields clothing from liquid spills.
2. Safety Goggles: Shields eyes from hazardous materials and physical hazards.
3. Sink (with soap): Provides water and soap for handwashing after chemical contact.
4. Fire Blanket: Smothers fires on people/objects.
5. Emergency Shut - Off Button: Quickly cuts utilities in emergencies.
6. Safety Shower: Rinses chemicals off skin/clothing.
7. Eye Wash Station: Flushes eyes to remove chemicals.

12. Hair Tie: Keeps hair away from lab equipment/fires.
13. Safety Shoes: Protects feet from spills, broken glass, etc.
14. Broken Glass Container: Safely disposes of sharp/broken glass.

For the “Location” column, use labels (A, B, C, etc.) based on your actual lab setup. If a tool is personal (e.g., hair tie, safety shoes) or not in the classroom (e.g., telephone in office), note that.
