Make only one change at a time. If you are working with chemicals, divide the unknown chemical into many little batches,so that you will have some left if you don't solve it at first.
Record everything. Negative data are still data! The unexpected thing is somethimes more imporant than the thing you were trying to prove.
Always use eye protection, good ventilation, have a fire extinguisher handy. Don't horseplay! That has caused more accidents than anything else. Keep a first aid kit handy, and for chemistry, have an eyewash station already set up and ready to be used. Some places where they are likely to have big splashes of chemicals have a shower ready and waiting to go, just in case soneone flames up or something. Please be careful.

One very important rule in chemistry is:
DO NOT DRINK THE CHEMICALS! This is not because they taste bad.
