Answer: Lee should tell the teacher while Celia washes her arm with soap and water.

Explain: The chemical must be rinsed off immediately (flush the area with lots of water — use the safety shower for large/serious spills) and the teacher must be informed right away so further help/medical attention can be provided. Wiping it off or waiting until leaving are incorrect.
