What precautions should be taken when burning magnesium?

Magnesium ribbon is not particularly dangerous unless you ignite it. If it does catch fire, it will burn with an intensly bright white light that will burn your retinas if you aren't wearing appropriate eye protection or aren't looking away while it is burning. It is as bad as watching arc welding because of the ultraviolet light emitted. It is good form to wear eye protection in the lab at all times. While you can tear the ribbon with your fingers, it is possible that it could poke you in the eye and scratch your cornea.

Write the precautions to be taken while using meter scale?

Following are some precautions to be taken while measuring length with the help of a metre scale: Scale must be placed in contact with the object along its length. Eyes must be exactly perpendicular to the point where the measurement is to be taken, to avoid parallax error. If the ends of a scale are broken/damaged we should avoid taking measurements from the end. Instead, we should place the object on any other fully visible mark on the scale (say, on 2 cm instead of 0). Then you must subtract the reading on this mark from the reading at the other end.
