Answer:
Denise should wear goggles, a lab coat, heat-proof gloves, and close-toed shoes to best protect herself when she transports the beaker to a balance outside the hood. The goggles will protect her eyes from any splashes or spills, the lab coat will protect her clothing from any spills or splashes, the heat-proof gloves will protect her hands from the hot beaker, and the close-toed shoes will protect her feet from any spills or broken glass.
