Question

Chemistry experiments should only be conducted in a laboratory. Why?

Answer 1

THE NEED FOR A LABORATORY

• Substances used in chemical reactions are called reagents. Some of them, such as concentrated acids, are dangerous to handle.
• Chemical reactions often result in a change in colour or temperature. They can result in the production of fumes and can sometimes be explosive.
• For all these reasons, it is necessary to conduct reactions in a safe environment, namely, the chemistry laboratory.
