Handleiding

Dear

Chemistry C500 will provide your child a ﬁrst

look at this fascinating science. It is natural to

have questions about the safety of a kit that

contains chemicals. The experimental

equipment and the experiments in this kit

meets U.S. and European safety standards,

which specify the safety requirements for

chemistry experiment kits. These standards

impose obligations on the manufacturer, such

as forbidding the use of any particularly

dangerous materials. The standards also

stipulate that adults should assist their

children with advice and assistance in their

new hobby. Therefore please take a look

through this instruction manual and pay

particular attention to the

→ Safety Rules on page 6,

→ Information about hazardous substances

(chemicals) on page 7,

→ Safety for experiments with batteries on

page 8,

→ First aid information on the inside front

cover, and the

→ Safety information accompanying each

experiment.

Advice for Supervising Adults

→ A. Read and follow these instructions, the

safety rules and the ﬁrst aid information,

and keep them for reference.

→ B. The incorrect use of chemicals can cause

injury and damage to health. Only carry out

those experiments which are listed in the

instructions.

→ C. This experimental set is for use only by

children over 10 years.

→ D. Because children’s abilities vary so much,

even within age groups, supervising adults

should exercise discretion as to which

experiments are suitable and safe for them.

The instructions should enable supervisors

to assess any experiment to establish its

suitability for a particular child.

→ E. The supervising adult should discuss the

warnings and safety information with the

child or children before commencing the

experiments. Particular attention should

be paid to the safe handling of acids (e.g.

tartaric acid), alkalis (bases, e.g. sodium

carbonate) and ﬂammable liquids

(denatured alcohol).

→ F. The area surrounding the experiment

should be kept clear of any obstructions and

away from the storage of food. It should be

well lit and ventilated and close to a water

supply. A solid table with a heat resistant

top should be provided.

Emphasize to your child the importance of

following all of this information, and the

importance of carrying out only those

experiments that are described in this

manual. Inform your child, but do not frighten

him or her — there’s no need for that.

While experimenting, please be careful not

to let the chemicals come into contact with

the skin, eyes, or mouth. Do not inhale

chemical dust, vapors or powder. It is also

important not to let the chemicals, or the

solutions prepared with them, to get into the

hands of small children.

When performing chemistry experiments,

it is important to wear suitable clothing (e.g.

an old smock and smooth ﬁngered gloves)

and the safety goggles. Please be sure to get

any required equipment and chemicals ready

before starting an experiment.

After completing the experiments, he or

she should clean up the work area and

thoroughly wash his or her hands.

We wish you and your young chemist a lot

of fun and success with the experiments!

and Supervising Adults
