APPARATUS, CHEMICALS AND UNIT OPERATIONS Flashcards
LESSON 2
Measure masses with high accuracy. Uses electromagnetic force compensation to balance the load on the pan.
Analytical Balance
What are the types of analytical balance?
- Microbalance - 160 g to 200 g
- Semimicro analytical balance- 10 g to 30 g
- Microanalytical balance- 1g to 3 g
What are the sources of error in weighing
Buoyancy error
effects of temperature
The weighing error that develops when the object being weighed has a significantly different density than the masses.
Buoyancy Error
A device for drying substances or objects and to minimize the uptake of moisture, dried materials are stored in desiccators while they cool.
desiccators
Hygroscopic substances that attract and absorb moisture from the surrounding air to maintain a state of dryness.
Dessicant
Are used as containers for the high temperature fusion of samples that are not soluble in aqueous reagents
Simple Crucibles
collection of a precipitate with a filtering crucible is frequently less time consuming with paper.
Filtering Crucibles.
Are manufactured is fine, medium and coarse porosities. Temperature limit is about 200 degrees
Sintered glass crucibles.
Has a perforated bottom that supports a fibrous mat
Gooch Crucible
They are used for the separation of solid particles from liquid to gas.
Filter Paper.
What is the filtration and ignition of solids heating equipment?
- Microwave Laboratory
- Heat lamp
- Burners
- Muffle Furnance
Use to extract, transport and dispense liquid samples.
Pipets.
A glass tube with graduations enabling us to measure the volume of liquid delivered through the stopcock the valve of the bottom.
Burets
Are calibrated in convenient units to permit delivery of any volume up to a maximum capacity ranging from 0.1 to 25 ml
