Beaker Stores larger volumes of liquids for mixing

Thermometer Degree Celsius To measure the temp. of liquids

Bunsen burner Heating of liquids and solids

Strikers Strikers are used to light Bunsen burners. The flints on strikers are expensive. Do not operate the striker repeatedly just to see the sparks!

Clay Triangle holds crucible on iron ring above a Bunsen burner

Crucible Tongs handles hot crucibles

Crucible contains solids to be heated to high temperatures

Erlenmeyer Flask flask: contains larger amount of liquid for mixing purposes Erlenmeyer: triangular shaped flask

Funnel Used to transfer liquids.

Volumetric flask Used to make precise concentrations of solutions.

Pipette Used to transfer liquids to test tubes or beakers from a common container.

Graduated Cylinder measures volume of liquids

Mortar and Pestle Mortar and pestle (bowl) (grinder) grinds solids into powder

Ring Stand holds lab apparatus, such as iron rings, with clamps

Scoopula (Combination Spatula and Spoon) dips into bottles of solid chemicals to remove them without contamination or contact

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

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.

Wire Gauze holds hot beakers/fla sks on iron ring

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.

Spot Plates Spot plates are used when we want to perform many small scale reactions at one time. We will use these many times during the year.
