use water to rinse the skin that came into contact with the chemical

Explanation

Tell your teacher about the spill right away so they can help and follow the lab’s safety procedures. Rinse the affected skin with plenty of water to remove the copper(II) chloride. Don’t ignore the splash or rub your skin with a paper towel, which could irritate the area or spread the chemical.
