• Flat conical body and cylindrical neck.
Erlenmeyer • Allows contents to be swirled or stirred during
flask an experiment – narrow neck keep the contents
from spilling out and reduce the evaporating.

• Simple container for stirring, mixing and


heating.
Beaker • Generally cylindrical in shape with a flat
bottom and a lip for pouring.
• Available in a wide range of sizes.

flask • Used for making solutions to a known volume.
• The neck has a single ring, graduation mark and
a label.

• Used to accurately measure the volume of an


Graduated
object.

widths, and sizes.
Test tube brush

• Used to clean the inside of a test tube or any other


long-necked glassware.

titration.

• A stand used to support a ring


Ring stand clamp or test tube clamp.
8

Funnel • Used for pouring liquids or other substances


through small opening and narrow-mouth
containers such as flasks and bottles.

Filter paper • A semi-permeable paper used to


separate fine substances and used
widely in filtration to separate solid
things from liquids.

pestle mortar and ground, crushed or mixed using a
pestle.

• A shallow glass or plastic cylindrical


Petri dish lidded dish that biologists use to
culture cells and bacteria.
10

• A laboratory weight machine that measure the


mass of an object (solid, liquid or wide range
of uses).

Electronic
Balance
11
Commonly used in chemistry, biology and
medicine to transport a measured volume of liquid.

Pipette
12

• Commonly used in separation of fluids and other


substances using the centrifugal force at high
speed, thereby separating fluids at different
densities..

Centrifuge
13

• Is a container filled with heated water.


• Used to incubate samples in water in a constant
temperature over a long period of time.

Water bath
14
• Used for sample drying, sterilizing, evaporating
and dehydrating and other general laboratory
work.

Oven
15
• Used usually for sterilization of wide range of
microorganisms like bacteria, fungi, viruses and spores.
• Uses steam under pressure to generate high temperature.

Autoclave
• Is an instrument that measures the amount of photons (the
16
intensity of light) absorbed after it passes through sample
solution.
• By spectrophotometer, the amount of a known chemical
substance (concentration) can also be determined.

Spectrophotometer
17

• A type of ventilation device that is designed to limit


exposure to hazardous or toxic fume.
