Today in Chemistry we were doing a lab. We used Barium nitrate, Barium chloride, Lithium chloride, Copper (II) chloride, Strontium nitrate, Strontium chloride, Calcium nitrate and Potassium nitrate. As I was crushing up one of those (I can't remember which one, but I know it was clearish/whitish), a few grains shot up into my mouth. I immediately rinsed my mouth out and then told the teacher, but he didn't take me very seriously since I couldn't remember which salt I was working with. He made me feel almost like I'd done something wrong for not paying attention to detail. Well excuse me, it could have happened to anyone.
But anyways, my question is, am I okay? Do you think this is anything to worry about? Enough to harm me and/or kill me?..
