TRANSCRIPT
• A Florence flask (also known as a boiling flask) to hold liquids.
• A Florence flask has a round bottom with a single long neck
• It is designed for uniform heating and ease of swirling;
• it is produced in a number of different glass thicknesses to stand different types of use.
Florence Flask
Volumetric Flask
Volumetric Flask
• A volumetric flask (measuring flask or graduated flask) is a piece of laboratory glassware, a type of
laboratory flask, calibrated to contain a precise volume at a particular temperature.
Volumetric flasks are used for precise dilutions and preparation of
standard solutions. These flasks are usually pear-shaped, with a flat bottom, and made of
glass or plastic.
Erlenmeyer
Erlenmeyer
• An Erlenmeyer flask, also known as a conical flask, is a widely used type of laboratory flask which features a flat bottom, a conical body, and a cylindrical neck.] It is
named after the German chemist Emil Erlenmeyer, who created it in 1861
Funnel
Funnel
• is a pipe with a wide, often conical mouth and a narrow stem.
• It is used to channel liquid or fine-grained substances into containers
with a small opening.
• Without a funnel, spillage would occur.
Graduated Cylinder
Graduated Cylinder
• A graduated cylinder, measuring cylinder or mixing cylinder is a piece of laboratory equipment
used to accurately measure the volume of a liquid.
burette
Base burette
• Base burettes are used for base titrants. Basically this is used in titrations where the analyte is an acid.
Acid buret
• A burette, or buret, is a uniform-bore glass tube with fine gradations and a stopcock at the bottom, used especially in laboratory procedures for accurate fluid dispensing and measurement.
Test Tube
Test Tube
• A test tube, also known as a culture tube or sample tube, is a common piece of laboratory glass ware consisting of a finger-like length of
glass or clear plastic tubing, open at the top, usually with a rounded U-shaped bottom.
Test Tube Rack
Watch Glass
Watch Glass
• A watch glass is a circular, slightly convex-concave piece of glass used in chemistry as a surface to evaporate a liquid, to hold solids while being weighed, or as a cover
for a beaker.
Test Tube Rack
• The main reasons are safety, convenience and ease of handling.
• If you have test tubes with toxic or corrosive or flammable chemicals in, they need to be
stood up.
• Test tubes will not stand up by themselves. A test tube rack is a convenient way of keeping a number of test tubes together especially if
you are doing one large experiment.
Spatula
Spatula• The term spatula is used to refer
to various small implements with a broad, flat, flexible blade used to mix, spread and lift materials including foods, drugs, plaster
and paints..
Crucible and Cover
Crucible and Cover
• A crucible is a container that can withstand very high temperatures and is used for metal, glass, and pigment production as well as a
number of modern laboratory processes.
Alcohol Lamp
Alcohol Lamp
• It heat ups specimen and with the use of the wire gauze it heats the
entire beaker or test tube
Evaporating Dish
Evaporating Dish
• is a piece of laboratory glassware used for the evaporation of solids and
supernatant fluids[note 1], and sometimes to their melting point. Evaporating dishes are used to evaporate excess solvents, most
commonly water - to produce a concentrated solution or a solid precipitate
of the dissolved substance.
Mortal and Pestle
Mortar and Pestle
• is a tool used to crush, grind, and mix solid substances/
• The pestle is a heavy club-shaped object, the end of which is used for crushing and
grinding.
• The mortar is a bowl, typically made of hard wood, ceramic or stone
Dropper
Dropper
• It is a device that can measure out one drop of water somewhat
accurately
Stirring Rod
Stirring Rod
• A stirring rod or stir rod is a piece of laboratory equipment used to mix chemicals and liquids for laboratory purposes. They are usually made of solid glass, about the thickness and slightly longer than a drinking straw, with rounded ends. Like most laboratory glass, stir rods are made of borosilicate
Thermometer
Thermometer
• A thermometer (from the Greek θερμός, thermos, meaning "hot" and μἐτρον, metron,
"measure") is a device that measures temperature or temperature gradient using a
variety of different principles.[1] A thermometer has two important elements: the temperature
sensor (e.g. the bulb on a mercury thermometer) in which some physical change occurs with
temperature, plus some means of converting this physical change into a numerical value (e.g. the
scale on a mercury thermometer).
Wash Bottle
Wash Bottle
• A wash bottle is a squeeze bottle with a nozzle, used to rinse various pieces of
laboratory glassware, such as test tubes and round bottom flasks.
• Wash bottles are sealed with a screw-top lid. When hand pressure is applied to the
bottle, the liquid inside becomes pressurized and is forced out of the nozzle
into a narrow stream of liquid
Iron Stand
Iron Stand
• It is a laboratory equipment used to hold or support beakers during experiments.
Iron Ring
Iron Ring
• is used in Bunsen burner and it is adjustable
Iron Clamp
Iron Clamp
• is a piece of laboratory equipment used to hold things and is placed in an iron stand
to elevate other equipment.
