Ben will be conducting an experiment in which he reacts metals with different concentrations of acid in test tubes. What should Ben wear to best protect himself during the experiment?

Acids can splash while Ben reacts metals with them, so goggles protect his eyes and chemical-resistant gloves protect his hands. A lab coat and close-toed shoes provide additional protection from spills, making “goggles, a lab coat, chemical gloves, and close-toed shoes” the best choice.
