SCIENCE TOOLS To become a successful scientists, we must be able to identify and use scientific instruments or tools. These tools are for collecting data, taking measurements, and recording observations. Scientists use a variety of tools to do investigations.

Safety Goggles Eyewear that protects the eyes during a science experiment or investigation from hazardous or dangerous materials.

Magnifying Lens A tool that magnifies objects or makes objects look larger than they are.

Stereoscope A binocular instrument that magnifies 2 dimensional objects and shows depth

Microscope A tool that magnifies at a much higher power than a hand lens. It magnifies or makes tiny objects larger, only used on microscopic, flat, opaque items.

Cover Slip and Slides Items used to create a wet mount slide to view specimen(s) under a microscope. The slide provides a platform from which to view a specimen. The coverslip helps to flatten surface and keep specimen in place.

Petri Dish A container used for samples or specimens. A tool to culture microorganisms.

Triple Beam Balance A tool used to measure the mass of an object. A balance tells the amount of matter an object contains.

Beaker An open cylindrical container with a pouring lip. measures volume

Erlenmeyer Flask container with a flat bottom and tapered neck. Easy mouth pours solutions and may be closed with a stopper (top). Measures volume & allows for mixing without spillage.

Bulb Flask container used to heat or boil a liquid measures volume

Graduated Cylinder Used for measuring volume of liquids. 

Test Tube & Test Tube Rack A test tube is used to heat, hold, or mix liquids or solids in chemistry class. It is cylindrical; open at one end and closed at the other. test tube rack is used to organize/hold test tubes with chemicals; also a drying rack

Dropper A pipet, or tube, for dispensing liquid in drops.

Telescope A tool used to see objects in the sky. It magnifies or makes objects in the sky larger.

Meter Stick A meter tool that is used to measure distance and the length of objects. It tells how long an object is. In science, we use the metric system for measuring.

Thermometer A tool used to measure temperature. It measures the temperature of air and most liquids. The Greek prefix “therm” means “heat”.

Compass A tool to navigate direction; N (north), S (south), E (east), and W (west). It is used to find Earth’s magnetic north pole.

Stopwatch A tool used to measure time.

Magnet A magnet attracts & repels objects. Attracts or pulls items with iron, nickel, or cobalt towards it.

Collecting Net A tool used to gather animal samples or specimens such as butterflies.

Lab Coat Smock worn by professionals in the medical field or by those involved in laboratory work. The coat  protects clothing and also serves as a simple uniform.

Scoopula Scooping utensil is used to “scoop” or transfer solid chemicals or scrape chemicals from containers, much like a spatula is used to scrape food from a bowl.

Stand Typically used to hold items (such as a flask or beaker) over a flame during lab.

Bunsen Burner produces a flame that can be used for various purposes, such as heating or sterilizing materials.

Tweezers Used to handle small objects easily.

Tuning Fork A 2-pronged metal fork that, when struck, produces a pure note of constant specified pitch.  Demonstrates vibrational tones; pitch depends on length and mass of prongs

Funnel a tube or pipe that is wide at the top and narrow at the bottom, used for guiding liquid or powder into a small opening.

A tool used to heat objects. Hot Plate A tool used to heat objects.

Calculators An electronic device for solving mathematic problems in science class.

Computer An electronic tool that performs tasks by processing and storing information / data.
