What is the most important piece of safety equipment in a chemistry lab?
Although this is a question primarily based in opinion, one of the most important things to consider when entering a lab is whether or not you are dressed in proper attire. “Proper attire” can change from lab to lab; most of the time you will be required to wear shoes that cover the entire top, bottom, and back of your foot, bottoms that cover your entire leg, shirts that have short sleeves or longer that do not billow, approved safety goggles, as well as hair being tied back. Most of the time, jewelry is not recommended especially when working with corrosive substances.
