John is completing a lab in which he is using the corrosive base sodium hydroxide (NaOH). For this laboratory experiment, what types of safety precautions should he take? Check all that apply.

Sodium hydroxide is corrosive, so John should protect his eyes with safety goggles and his skin and clothing with a lab coat. He should also read the safety information, such as the SDS, before starting so he understands the hazards and safe handling steps. A water bottle should not be kept on the lab desk because food and drinks do not belong in the laboratory.
