What does this symbol mean, give a description.
Sharp object safety
Danger of cuts or punctures by the use of sharp objects exists.
Parts of a graph.
*Variables- Controlled (3), independent, dependent.
*Informative title- The effect of the IV on the DV.
What does this mean, and give a description.
Clothing Protection Safety
A lab apron must be worn when this symbol appears.
What does this symbol stand for?
Exploding Bombs
*self reactive (severe)
*explosive (duh)
What deos this symbol stand for?
Corrosive
*corrosive to metals
*Serious eye damage
*sever skin burns
What does this symbol mean, give a description.
Skin protection safety
Use of caustic chemicals might irritate the skin or when contact with micro organisms might transmit infections.
Components of the scientific method.
*Question- what problem would you like to investigate?
*Background research- look at info ( 3 different sources)
*Hypothesis- an educated guess about what you think will happen. The comparison of the IV and DV to find the relationship between them.
_design_
*Observation- where you put data and diagrams. tables are completed as you're doing your testing.
*Analyze Data/Interpretations- where you putt your graphs
Conclusion- What were the results of the lab? Did the data support your hypothesis? Use SPECIFIC examples from data to justify whether you were correct/ incorrect with your hypothesis*
Analyze any errors in the inquiry. Identify ways to reduce errors, what could have been done to improve lab accuracy?
YOU MUST INCLUDE SPECIFIC REFERENCE DATA IN THE CONCLUSION!! BE SPECIFIC. Conclusion would also include at least two areas of further study.
What does this symbol mean, and give a description.
Eye Safety
A danger to the eye exists. Safety goggles should be worn when this symbol appears.
What does this symbol stand for?
Flame
*flammable (duh)
*self heating & self reactive
*might explode if exposed to heat, sparks, friction, flames, or incompatible material
What does this symbol stand for?
*gases under pressure may explode if dropped, punctured, or heated
Location of the x and y axis?
Design includes:
Materials and equipment- what will you need in order toc conduct your lab?
Safety Precautions- consideration for the hazards in you lab and how will you deal with these hazards
Variables- list your variables; independent, dependent, controlled (3 min.)
Procedures- the step by step description of how to conduct said experiment
****VERY DETAILED AND SPECICFIC
What does this symbol mean, and give a description.
Fire Safety
Care should be taken around open flames.
What does this symbol stand for?
Exclamation mark
*skin and/or eye irritant
*acute toxicity
*hazardous to ozone layer
What does this mean, and give a description.
Electrical Safety
Care should be taken when using electrical equipment.
How to properly label a graph?
The effect of the IV on the DV.
What does this symbol mean, and give a description.
Disposal Alert
Care must be taken to dispose of materials properly.
What does this symbol stand for?
Environment
*may be harmful to aquatic life
*can cause long term effects to aquatic environments
What does this symbol mean, give a description.
Thermal safety
Reminder to use caution when handling hot objects.
What are the expectations of constructing a graph?
*always on graph paper & larger than half the page
*pencil only
*use ruler; meat
*three types of graphs: line, bar, histogram
*bar graph needs legend (must be coloured)
* x axis is IV, y axis is DV
*must include units of measurement
*appropriate spacing
* out of 7
