Answer 1

1. There are many specific instructions as how to transfer liquid chemicals. But your question is specific about "reducing the risk of spills when pouring liquid chemicals". That means you have to "pour", and your only concern is about "spill".
a) attention concentration
b) make sure that you can easily control the containers
c) Make the pouring occurs at your most comfortable gesture
d) Better to pour from a small container with small opening into big container/s with big opening/s.

2. a) to know the chemicals, thus you know how to safely protect humen beings, properties, environment, and etc, based on specific chemical properties.
b) to use a correct method to mix the chemicals, to protect chemical properties, to avoid unnecessary side effects, etc.

3. Never pour water into concentrated acid, especially H2SO4. Always pour acid into water slowly and make sure to stir at the same time.
