    If some of the bromine/methylene chloride mixture spills on you, what actions should you take? (choose all that apply)

    a. Remove your gloves and/or lab coat if any spilled

    b. Wash any affected skin with plenty of water

    c. If it got in your eyes, rinse them at the eye wash for 15 minutes

    d. Blot the mixture off your skin with a paper towel

    e. Alert your TA

    The correct answers are

    a., b., c. and e.

    Explanation:

    Bromine is corrosive and it is a strong oxidizing agent while dichloromethane also known as methylene chloride is carcinogenic, easy to inhale as is is very volatile and can cause chemical burns when it contacts the skin

    The required actions are

    a. Remove your gloves and/or lab coat if any spilled on them

    b. Wash any affected skin with plenty of water so as to completely remove any residue and possible reduce the effect by diluting any remaining trace left

    c. If it got in your eyes, rinse them at the eye wash for 15 minutes to properly clear out all possible remnants in the eye

    e. Alert your TA
