Chemical Safety

A chemical substance can exist as a solid, liquid or gas and still be the same substance. For example, water and steam are different forms of the same substance. The container that the chemical is supplied in should have a label that describes the properties of the chemical. Everyone should be aware of the chemicals they are using either in the workplace or in the home.
