1. Lab Equipments

2. Test Tubes 13 x 100 mm test tubes 10 x 75 mm test tubes Ignition tube Used for chemicals to mix or reaction

3. Test Tube Racks Test tube racks are for holding and organizing test tubes on the laboratory counter. Plastic racks may melt in contact with very hot test tubes.

4. Test Tube Brushes Test tube brushes are used to clean test tubes and graduated cylinders. Forcing a large brush into a small test tube will often break the tube.

5. Spatulas/Scoopula Spatulas/Scoopula are used to dispense solid chemicals from their containers. Chemicals should never be transferred with your bare hands.

6. Test Tube Holder A test tube holder is useful for holding a test tube which is too hot to handle.

7. Rubber Stoppers Rubber stoppers are used to close containers to avoid spillage or contamination. Containers should never be heated when there is a stopper in place.

8. Crucible Tongs For handling hot crucibles; also used to pick up other hot objects. NOT to be used for picking up beakers!

9. Goggles PROTECT YOURPROTECT YOUR

10. Gloves For handling hot objects

11. Forceps Forceps (or tweezers) are used to pick up small objects.

12. Petri Dish A petri dish is a shallow glass or plastic cylindrical lidded dish that biologists use to culture cells or bacteria

13. Wash Bottle A wash bottle has a spout that delivers a wash solution to a specific area. Distilled water is the only liquid that should be used in a wash bottle.

14. Apron Lab aprons are synthetic rubber coated and is acid-resistant, alcohol-resistant and has a better oil-resistance than natural rubber.

15. Pipette The pipette is used for moving small amounts of liquid from place to place. They are usually made of plastic and are disposable

16. Dilution Tray Is used to perform serial dilution

17. Ringstands and their Components Ringstands are a safe and convenient way to perform reactions that require heating using a Bunsen burner.

18. Ringstands and their Components Wire Gauze Wire gauze sits on the iron ring to provide a place to stand a beaker. On older wire gauze, the white material is asbestos!

19. Clay Triangle The clay triangle is used as a support for porcelein crucibles when being heated over a Bunsen burner.

20. Evaporating Dish The evaporating dish is used for the heating of stable solid compounds and elements.

21. Crucible Crucibles are used for heating certain solids, particularly metals, to very high temperatures.

22. Ringstands and their Components Ringstands are a safe and convenient way to perform reactions that require heating using a Bunsen burner.

23. Iron Rings Iron rings connect to a ringstand and provide a stable, elevated platform for the reaction.

24. Ringstands and their Components Buret Clamps Buret clamps are used to clamp burets – long graduated tubes used in titration.

25. Bunsen Burner Bunsen burners are used for the heating of nonvolatile liquids and solids.

26. Ringstands and their Components Utility Clamps Utility clamps are used to secure test tubes, distillation columns, and burets to the ringstand.

27. Triple Beam Balance is used to measure masses very precisely

28. Burette is used to dispense known amounts of a liquid reagent in experiments

29. Funnel A funnel is used to aid in the transfer of liquid from one vessel to another.

30. Graduated Cylinder A graduated cylinder is used to measure volumes of liquids.

31. Hot plate used in laboratory settings to heat glassware

32. Thermometer is a device that measures temperature

33. Erlenmeyer Flask Erlenmeyer flasks hold solids or liquids that may release gases during a reaction or that are likely to splatter if stirred or heated.

34. Beaker Beakers hold solids or liquids that will not release gases when reacted or are unlikely to splatter if stirred or heated.

35. Watch Glass A watch glass is used to hold a small amount of solid, such as the product of a reaction.

36. A medicine dropper is used to transfer a small volume of liquid (less than one mL). On top of each medicine dropper is a “rubber bulb”
