Frequently asked questions
What does a fume hood do?
It pulls vapour away from your face and vents it outside, which is the only reason some experiments can be done indoors at all.
Is this suitable for the first science lesson of the year?
It is written for exactly that, since safety vocabulary is what most courses cover before anyone is allowed to touch anything.
