1 Science Equipment

2 Hand Lens A magnifying glass designed to be held in the hand.

3 Dissecting Tray A tray that you place the specimen or object on that is being dissected.

4 Dissecting Pins To hold specimen in place on dissecting tray

5 Forceps An instrument, as pincers or tongs, for seizing and holding objects, as in dissecting/surgical operations.

6 Dissecting Scissors For cutting open a specimen

7 Dissecting Probes For moving internal parts of a specimen to get a better view

8 Scalpel A small, light, usually straight knife used in surgical and anatomical operations and dissections.

9 Safety Glasses/Goggles Goggles or safety glasses are forms of protective eyewear that usually enclose or protect the area surrounding the eye in order to prevent particulates, water or chemicals from striking the eyes.

10 Harvard Trip Balance / Double Beam Use: measure mass (typical units = mg/g/kg)

11 Triple-beam Balance Use: measures mass (typical units = mg/g/kg)

12 Electronic Balance Use: measures mass (typical units = mg/g/kg)

13 Spring Scale Use: measures gravitational force, units = g or N(Newton)

14 Graduated Cylinder Use: measures volume (space) most common unit = ml

15 Meniscus Curve (read the center of the curve)

16 Test Tube A hollow cylinder of thin glass or plastic with one end closed, usually with a rounded U-shaped bottom. Used by chemists to hold, mix, or heat small quantities of solid or liquid chemicals

17 Test Tube Rack Used for holding and observing or drying test tubes

18 Test Tube Holder For holding and moving test tubes

19 Test Tube Brush For cleaning test tubes

20 Funnel A cone-shaped utensil with a tube at the apex for conducting liquid or other substance through a small opening, as into a bottle, jug, or the like.

21 Wash Bottles A wash bottle is a squeeze bottle with a nozzle, used to rinse various pieces of laboratory glassware, such as test tubes and round bottom flasks.

22 Buret/Burette [byoo-ret] A graduated glass tube, commonly having a valve at the bottom, used for accurately measuring or measuring out small quantities of liquid.

23 Beaker A flat-bottomed cylindrical container, usually with a pouring lip, especially one used in a laboratory. Use = stirring, mixing and heating liquids Common units = ml & l

24 Beaker Tongs For gripping and lifting beakers

25 Erlenmeyer Flask Use: heat liquids, microbial cultures, & capture gases A flat bottom, a conical body, and a cylindrical neck. It is named after the German chemist Emil Erlenmeyer, who created it in 1861.

26 Florence Flask (AKA boiling flask) Use: holding & boiling liquids A Florence flask has a round bottom with a single longneck. It is designed for uniform heating and ease of swirling. The flask is named after Florence, Italy

27 Rubber Stopper Use: seal flasks, test tubes, & soda bottles, & to attach glass tubes & thermometers

28 Bunsen Burner named after Robert Bunsen Use: for heating, sterilization, and combustion Fuels: natural gas, propane, or butane

29 Portable Bunsen Burner & Stand

30 Flint Igniter Use: igniting a bunsen burner

31 Ceramic Iron Wire Gauze Durable iron gauze with ceramic fiber center for flame thermal protection and longer life.

32 Hot Plate

33 Pipette (Medicine Dropper) Pipette Glass Pipette Disposable

34

35 Glass Slides Coverslips

36 Thermometer Greek ‘Thermos’ meaning hot, metron, "measure") Water Freezing: 0°C, 32°F Boiling: 100°C, 212°F Measures temperature Units: Fahrenheit (°F) Celsius (°C) Kelvin (K)

37 Petri Dish named after Julius Richard Petri Use: growing & observing culture cells or mosses It is a shallow cylindrical glass or plastic with a lid

38 Metric ruler Measures distance Units: mm, cm, m, km

39 Lab Scoop/Spatula Use: scoop chemicals out of bottles

40 Mortar & Pestle Use: grinding and mixing chemicals

41 Crucible & Cover A container that can withstand very high temperatures and is used for metal, glass, and pigment production as well as a number of modern laboratory processes.

42 Crucible Tongs For picking up and moving a crucible.

43 Crucible Triangle When heating up the contents of a crucible, the crucible is placed on the triangle.

44 Crucible Cradle

45 Evaporating Dish used to evaporate excess solvents, most commonly water - to produce a concentrated solution or a solid precipitate of the dissolved substance.

46 Ring Stand A metal stand consisting of a long upright rod attached to a heavy rectangular base that is used with rings and clamps for supporting laboratory apparatus

47 Ring Clamp Clamp on to a ring stand

48 Buret/Thermometer/Test Tube Clamp
