Answer:

Notify your instructor and surrounding classmates.

Step-by-step explanation:

this is a rule of lab safety according to which when ever you broke some thing in the lab or you spill any chemical on the floor you should tell teaching assistant or lab attendant or your professor. Because they know how to handle these things properly. By doing so you will protect your friends who may get hurt due to glass ware or spilled chemical.
