Use for taking weight of substances
Balance
Type of balances
Double-beam, Triple beam, top-load, analytical balance
are a safe and
convenient way to perform
reactions that require heating
using a Bunsen burner.
Iron stand
used to
secure test tubes,
distillation columns, and
burets to the ringstand.
Utility clamps
clamps are used to
burets – long
graduated tubes
used in titration
Double Buret clamps
used for heating nonvolatile solids and liquids
Bunsen burner
connect to a
ringstand and provide a
stable, elevated platform
for the reaction
Iron ring
hold
solids or liquids that may
release gases during a
reaction or that are likely
to splatter if stirred
or heated
Erlenmeyer Flask
cylindrical glass or
plastic vessel used for
holding liquids.
Used for containing a
chemical reaction,
measuring liquids and
heating.
Beaker
Rarely used in first year
chemistry, it is used for
the mixing of chemicals.
Narrow neck prevents
splash exposure.
Florence Flask
is used to
hold a small amount of
solid, such as the
product of a reaction.
Watch Glass
to hold
chemicals during
experiments
Test Tubes
to hold
chemicals during
experiments
Test Tubes
useful for holding a
test tube which is
too hot to handle.
Test Tube holder
for holding
and organizing test tubes on
the laboratory counter. Plastic
racks may melt in contact with
very hot test tubes
Test Tube Racks
channel liquid or
fine-grained substances into
containers with a small opening
Funnel
is used to
manually stir solutions.
It can also be used to
transfer a single drop of
a solution.
Glass Stirring Rod
has a
spout that delivers a
wash solution to a
specific area. Distilled
water is the only liquid
that should be used in a
wash bottle
Wash bottle
is
used for the heating of
stable solid compounds
and elements.
Evaporating Dish
used to move beakers
containing hot liquids
Beaker Tongs
