M2.1 Flashcards
– Used for mixing, stirring, and heating chemicals
* Seldom for measuring
* Minimize use of stirring rod (SWIRL!)
– Have SPOUTS on their rims to aid in pouring
* Minimize use of funnel
BEAKERS
– Allows EASY MIXING AND SWIRLING of the
flask without too much risk of spilling
ERLENMEYER FLASK
– As container
– Keep it dry and
clean!
WATCH GLASS
– To MEASURE VOLUME of liquids
GRADUATED CYLINDER
– Used to measure an EXACT LARGE volume of liquid
– There is a SMALL LINE on the neck that indicates how far to fill the bottle
– Use CORK as stopper if necessary, NOT your
thumb!
VOLUMETRIC FLASK
– Measuring an EXACT SMALL volume of liquid and placing it into another container
PIPETTE
2 TYPES O PIPETTE
VOLUMETRIC PIPETTE
MOHR’S / GRADUATED / MEASURING PIPETTE
– Make sure to check if it is UNUSED/CLEAN
before use.
- use for transferring liquid into another container in small drops
DROPPERS
- A GLASS TUBE that is open at the top and comes to a narrow pointed opening at the bottom.
– Right above the bottom opening is a STOPCOCK that can be turned to control the amount of liquid being released.
BURETTE
– There are markings along the length of the tube that indicate the volume of liquid present.
– Used for EXTREMELY ACCURATE ADDITION OF LIQUID, especially during TITRATION
BURETTE
– Used to SUSPEND burets, beakers, flasks, crucibles, etc. in some cases, a heat source
IRON STAND, RING AND CLAMPS
(suction bulb)
– A common source of
CONTAMINATION
ASPIRATOR
these reagent bottles are not for alkalis/bases
GLASS REAGENT BOTTLE
- ANALYTICA METHOD of determining the QUANTITY OF REAGENT of known concentration (STANDARD SOLUTION) that is required to react completely with the amount of active constituent is sample being analyzed (analyte).
TITRIMETRY
in TITRATION, the BURETTE contains the
TITRANT (standard soln., known soln.)
in TITRATION, the FLASK contains the
ANALYTE / TITRAND (unknown soln.)
Neutralization Reaction
ACID-BASE
ACID + BASE →
SALT + WATER
common indicators
methyl red
methyl orange
phenolphthalein
test analysis
ASSAY
- A process in which A STANDARD REAGENT IS ADDED TO A SOLUTION OF ANALYTE until the reaction is judged to be complete.
