Q

High thermal resistant glass with low alkali content such as kimax and pyrex

A

Borosilicate Glass

17
Q

they are strengthened chemically rather than thermally and six times stronger than borosilicate example is Corex, they resist clouding and scratching and alkali resistant.

A

Alumina-Silicate glass

18
Q

glass which has been strengthened chemically.

A

Corex

19
Q

recommended for use involving high temperature; drastic heat shock. It is primarily used in ashing and ignition techniques.

A

vycor

20
Q

contains materials that
imparts an amber or red color to the glass and reduce the amount of light passing to the substance within the glassware’s.

A

low actinic glass

21
Q

developed to provide a highly protective laboratory glassware for handling materials sensitive to light (bilirubin, carotene and Vitamin A).

A

low actinic glass

22
Q

soda–lime glass composed of mixtures of the silicone, calcium and sodium. This type of glass is lowest in cost and can readily be fabricated in a variety of shapes. Glass of choice for weighing bottles.

A

Standard Flint Glass

23
Q

non-volumetric glassware

A

beaker, flask

Q

volumetric glassware

A

volumetric flask, graduated cylinder

25
Q

Laboratory instrument used to transport a measured volume of liquid.

A

Pipette

26
Q

Designed to deliver a single volume precisely, the volume will be indicated near the top of the pipet, At the top of the pipet is an etched ring.
✓ has a large bulb, and is calibrated for a single volume. Typical volumes are 10, 25, and 50 mL
