 TEST TUBE
The test tube is part of the glassware of a
chemical laboratory. This instrument allows the
preparation of solutions
 Shapes and Characteristics

o It is a small glass tube with an opening in the

upper area, and in the lower area it is closed
and concave.
o It is made of a special glass that resists very
high temperatures, however very radical
temperature changes can cause tube
breakage (Pyrex).
o Generaly Chemistry tubes are available in a
multitude of lengths and widths, typically from
10 to 20 mm wide and 50 to 200 mm long
 Applications

In laboratories it is used to contain

small liquid samples, and to prepare
solutions.
 How to
use
o Heating the tube involves using wooden tweezers if it
is exposed to high temperatures for a long time.
Otherwise, they can use their hands to hold it, in cases
where there is no danger.
o Do not direct the tube towards our face or body when
carrying out chemical reactions or preparations.
o Its storage is deposited in racks, which function as a
support
 DROPPER
Shapes and characteristics

o Dropper is a pipette consisting of a

small tube with a vacuum bulb at one
end for drawing liquid in and releasing it
a drop at a time.
o it is made with glass and also with
plastic

planet to the Sun and

Solar System

It is a very easy to use tool, for this you only

need to press a little the rubber that is at one
end of the dropper, submerge the tip in the
liquid to be transported, release the rubber so
that it sucks and the liquid can remain in the
dropper.
 Applications
The droppers also, they can be used in hospitals to transfer drugs
A BEAKER
In laboratory equipment, a beaker is generally a cylindrical
container with a flat bottom. Most also have a small spout
(or "beak") to aid pouring.

Beakers are available in a wide range of sizes, from one

milliliter up to several liters. A beaker is distinguished from
a flask by having straight rather than sloping sides.
TIPES
A low-form or Griffin form
beaker
Standard or "low-form" beakers typically have
a height about 1.4 times the diameter. The
common low form with a spout was devised
by John Joseph Griffin and is therefore
sometimes called a Griffin beaker.
A beaker is distinguished from a flask because in the latter its lateral
faces are straight and not inclined or curved. The exception to this
definition is a slightly tapered sided glass, called a Phillips glass.

A flat beaker or A tall-form or

crystallizer Berzelius beaker
Flat beakers are often called
Tall-form beakers have a height "crystallizers" because most are
about twice their diameter. These used to perform crystallization, but
are sometimes called Berzelius they are also often used as a vessel
beakers and are mostly used for for use in hot-bath heating. These
titration. beakers usually do not have a flat
scale.
 ERLENMEYE
R
An Erlenmeyer flask, also known as a conical flask
or a titration flask, is a type of laboratory flask
which features a flat bottom, a conical body, and a
cylindrical neck. It is named after the German
chemist Emil Erlenmeyer (1825–1909), who
created it in 1860.

Erlenmeyer flasks have wide bases, with sides

that taper upward to a short vertical neck.
They may be graduated, and often spots of
ground glass or enamel are used where they
can be labeled with a pencil.
 It differs from the beaker in its tapered body and
narrow neck.Depending on the application, they
may be constructed from glass or plastic,in a wide
range of volumes.

The mouth of the Erlenmeyer flask may have a

beaded lip that can be stopped or covered.
Alternatively, the neck may be fitted with ground
glass or other connector for use with more
specialized stoppers or attachment to other
apparatus. A Büchner flask is a common design
modification used for filtration under vacuum.
 TEST TUB
RACK
Test tube racks also make it easy to organize test
tubes and provide support for test tubes you work
with.

Test tube racks are laboratory equipment

used to hold several test tubes upright at the
same time.

This form of test tube racks
consists of several rack cubes
that can be disassembled and
rotated depending on which side

Burette
The burette is a laboratory instrument used to deliver
variable volumes of liquid with great precisión.

Characteristics and shapes

o It is an instrument made of
glass.
o It is cylindrical and elongated
in shape.
o It is of uniform internal
diameter.
o It has graduation marks.
o It has a key at its lower end
made of glass and Teflon,
inert and resistant.

 Methodology for
using the burette
o A burette must be attached to a universal
stand vertically
o Rinse
o Fill the burette with the solution.
o Eliminate any air bubbles.
o Dry the outside of the burette spout
o Place a beaker or the necessary container
under the burette, on the support.
o With a skillful hand, the tap should be
opened gently until the liquid in the burette
begins to descend.
o With the other hand we can gently shake
the container below if necessary
BALL FLASK
It is a glass container with a long neck and
a spherical body and has different uses in
the laboratory.
A laboratory instrument
used to measure small
amounts of liquid. It is a
glass tube open at both
ends and wider in its
central part.

VOLUMETRIC

GRADUATED
CYLINDER
A graduated cylinder, measuring cylinder, or
mixing cylinder is a common piece of laboratory
equipment used to measure the volume of a
liquid.
It has a narrow cylindrical shape. The marked
lines, each of which represents the amount of
liquid that has been measured. Laboratorists often find the need to use exact
amounts of liquids to conduct experiments.
Due to the precision of the measurements, it is
necessary to have the right material to guarantee
them such accuracy

accurate measurement of liquids.
The cylinders are roller resistant and
reusable.
It is usually narrow and high to increase the
accuracy of volume measurement; it has a plastic
or glass base and a "peak" to easily pour the
measured liquid. An additional version is wide
and low.

Mixing cylinders have the ability to close, because

they have gaskets made of frosted glass instead of
a nozzle. This allows direct connection to other
elements of a collector.
Laboratory
balances
It is an instrument that allows us to measure the
mass of different substances and objects.
Over time, the balances evolved, today the
laboratory or chemical balance is of great
precision as it weighs mass of reagents for
chemical or biological analysis.

The accuracy of a balance varies from kilograms,

with precision of grams, from commercial
industrial balances, to balances that measure in
grams that have precision in milligrams in
laboratory balances.
• it is an instrument used in the
laboratory to measure
masses. It has a very small
margin of error, for this
reason, they are perfect if you
need accurate
measurements. They are
usually digital and give you
information in different unit
systems.

• The laboratory scales were

developed in 1750 by Scottish
chemist Joseph Black, were
more accurate than other
scales of that time and
represented a breakthrough
in chemistry.
