      I wouldn’t catch either, I would run away to make sure they didn’t dissolve me or blow me up! Luckily in my lab the chemicals we use aren’t too dangerous so if there were 2 falling I would probably catch the one to my right becuase I’m right handed and would be less likely to drop it.

      I agree with Callum, I wouldn’t try to catch any of them and get myself and anyone else away from them as quickily as possible.
      If I ever do use dangerous chemicals, then I would always make sure they were used carefully and safely so that something like that wouldn’t happen!

      I wouldn’t try an catch either of them, I’m sure if I did that I would end up spilling them all over myself!

      I agree with everyone else – I think the best idea would be to run away!

      We don’t use a lot of dangerous chemicals in our lab though which is lucky as I am a bit clumsy!

      I will be super heroic and catch the most dangerous one to save the other four scientists. Then people will put up statues in my honour. Although come to think about it, I think I would just run away too. And tell people I was heroic instead.
