Hazard diagrams

Hazard diagram is widely used to indicate the health, fire, and reactivity of chemicals. It is
important to be familiar with this diagram and what the number in each section indicates in
regards to the hazard presented by the chemical to which it is referring

Red is FIRE danger: rated on a 0-4 basis.

0 = will not burn
1 = must be preheated to burn
2 = Ignites when moderately heated
3 = Ignites at normal temperatures
4 = Extremely flamable

Yellow indicates REACTIVITY danger: rated on a 0-4 basis

0 = Normally stable
1 = Unstable if heated: use normal precautions
2 = Violent chemical change possible: use hose streams from distance
3 = Strong shock or heat may detonate: use monitors from behind explosive resistant barriers
4 = May detonate: vacate area if materials are exposed to fire

Blue represents HEALTH HAZARDS: rated on a 0-4 basis

0 = Like ordinary material
1 = Slightly hazardous
2 = hazardous: use breathing apparatus
3= Extremely dangerous: use full protecting clothing
4 = Too dangerous to enter vapor or liquid

WHITE signifies specific hazards, e.g. oxidizers, acids, bases, or corrosive materials.

Pictograms and Descriptions

Health Hazard: A cancer-causing agent (carcinogen) or substance with respiratory,
reproductive or organ toxicity that causes damage over time (a chronic, or long-term, health
hazard).

Health Hazard

Flame: Flammable materials or substances liable to self ignite when exposed to water or air
(pyrophoric), or which emit flammable gas.

Flame

Exclamation Mark: An immediate skin, eye or respiratory tract irritant, or

narcotic.

Gas Cylinder: Gases stored under pressure, such as ammonia or liquid nitrogen.

Gas Cylinder

Corrosion: Materials causing skin corrosion/burns or eye damage on contact, or that are
corrosive to metals.

Corrosion

Exploding Bomb: Explosives, including organic peroxides and highly unstable material at risk of
exploding even without exposure to air (self-reactives).

Exploding Bomb

Flame Over Circle: Identifies oxidizers. Oxidizers are chemicals that facilitate burning or make
fires burn hotter and longer.

Flame Over Circle

Skull and Crossbones: Substances, such as poisons and highly concentrated acids, which have
an immediate and severe toxic effect (acute toxicity).

Skull and Crossbones

Environmental Hazard: Chemicals toxic to aquatic wildlife. (Non-

Mandatory)

Lab Safety Rules

Safety must be the first concern of everyone working in a laboratory.

1. Know the location and use of all safety equipment in your laboratory.
2. Wear a laboratory coat or apron.
3. Wear gloves when dealing with chemicals.
4. Wear closed-toe and closed-heel shoes
5. Wear protective glasses or goggles for all laboratory work. (Wear glasses instead of
contacts if possible).
6. Tie back loose hair.
7. Keep your work area clean and organized, free from unnecessary supplies and papers. 8.
Check chemical labels twice to make sure you have the correct substance. Some chemical
formulas and names differ by only a letter or number.
9. Pay attention to the hazard classifications shown on the label.
10. You may be asked to transfer some laboratory chemicals from a common bottle or jar
to your own test tube or beaker. DO NOT return any excess material to its original
container.
11. Never taste laboratory materials.
12. Handle equipment carefully and deliberately.
13. When using equipment with electrical cords, place the cord out of the way.
14. Avoid using chipped or broken glassware.
15. If you are instructed to smell something, do so by fanning some of the vapor toward
 your nose. Do not place your nose near the opening of the container.
16. Never look directly down into a test tube; view the contents from the side. 17. In case
of a chemical spill on your skin or clothing rinse the affected area with plenty of water. If
the eyes are affected water-washing must begin immediately and continue for 10 to 15
minutes or until professional assistance is obtained.

18. Minor skin burns should be placed under cold, running water.
19. When discarding used chemicals, carefully follow the instructions provided.
20. Wash hands after dealing chemicals.
21. Do NOT put lab supplies in your mouth.
22. Before leaving the laboratory, ensure that gas lines and water faucets are shut off.
