Question 13 • LA-Chemistry A

Oh no! A thermometer suddenly fell on the floor and broke! Check all actions, if any, that you must take.

Answer
A
Pick up the broken thermometer, throw the broken glass away, and clean the area.
B
Tell the teacher about the accident right away.
C
Call 911.
D
Try to save the red alcohol from the thermometer for recycling purposes.
E
Pay for a replacement thermometer.

Explanation

Tell the teacher about the broken thermometer right away so they can direct the cleanup safely. Do not pick up the broken glass or clean the spill yourself, and do not try to save the liquid. Calling 911 and paying for a replacement are not normally required for this classroom accident.
