    COMMON LABORATORY APPARATUS

    Beaker
    is a glass container with a flat bottom
    that scientists use to hold liquids. In
    cartoons, mad scientists sometimes
    cackle gleefully while pouring bubbling
    chemicals into beakers.

    Beaker tongs
    are used to handle hot beakers. Typical
    beaker tongs can grab beakers of any
    size and can also be used to move other
    objects, such as cans. The grips of
    beaker tongs are generally wrapped in
    cloth or form-fitting vinyl.

    Bunsen Burner
    Frequently used as a heat source in the
    absence of flammable materials.

    Buret
    Used for dispensing an accurate volume
    of a liquid.
    Clay Triangle
    Used to support a crucible during
    heating.

    Crucible Tongs
    Used to hold crucibles.

    Erlenmeyer Flask

    Used to hold and mix chemicals. The


    small neck is to facilitate mixing without
    spilling.

    Evaporating Dish
    Used to heat liquids for evaporation.

    Forceps
    Used to pick up or hold small objects.

    Wire Gauze
    is a sheet of thin metal that has
    net-like patterns or a wire mesh.
    Wire gauze is placed on the
    support ring that is attached to
    the retort stand between the
    Bunsen burner and the
    glassware to support the
    beakers, flasks or other
    glassware during heating.
    Lab funnel
    is just like any other funnel
    except that it was designed to be
    used in a laboratory setting.

    Test tube
    rack pieces of equipment that
    are used to hold upright multiple
    test tubes at the same time.

    Striker Used
    to light a Bunsen Burner
    Volumetric Flask
    Used to prepare solutions to an
    accurate volume

    Watch Glass
    used to hold solids while they
    are being weighed or to cover a
    beaker.

    Pipet Bulb
    Used to draw liquids into a pipe.

    Ring Clamp
    Used with a ring stand to hold
    glassware, such as a beaker or a
    funnel

    Ring Stand
    Used to hold or clamp
    laboratory glassware and other
    equipment in place, so it does
    not fall down or come apart

    Stirring Rod
    Used for stirring and mixing.

    Safety Goggles
    are required wear in all
    chemistry labs. Not wearing
    them puts you in danger of eye
    irritation and possibly blindness
    in the case of an accident.
