Lab Equip Flashcards
used for obtaining mass of an object and chemical substance.
Triple Beam Balance
is the most common type in which the balance pan is placed over an electromagnet. The sample is placed on the sample pan displacing pan downward by a force equal to the product of the sample’s mass and the acceleration due to gravity.
Analytical Electronic Balance
are used for holding liquids and water. The glassware is also used for mixing solutions and heating the liquids.
Beakers
are small cylindrical vessels for holding small amount of liquids for mixing and heating.
Test tubes
is a narrow-mouthed container used to transport heat, or store substance.
Erlenmeyer Flask
can be used for measuring approximate amount of liquids.
Graduated cylinder
is a flask calibrated to contain a precise volume at a particular temperature. Used for precise dilution and creating standard solutions.
Volumetric flask
is a flask with a round body and flat bottom. It is used to hold and heat liquids evenly.
Florence Flask
is used to deliver a specified volume of solution.
Pipet
A type of pipette used to deliver variable volumes of liquids.
Graduated (measuring) pipettes
A type of pipette used for transferring very precise volume of solutions
Volumetric pipettes (Transfer pipet)
are used for measuring specific amounts of liquids during titration. Often for determining amounts of acids and bases needed.
Burettes
The most common type, has an inner tube through which vapor flows, surrounded by a “jacket” through which cool water passes and condenses the vapor.
Leibig condenser
is used to pour liquids into containers with small openings; also used to hold filter paper.
Filter Funnel
can be used in conjunction with the Buchner funnel in vacuum filtration and is a much quicker process than the gravity filtration.
