The list of the chemistry apparatus:

1. Beaker - a liquid-measuring container

2. Burette - measures volume of solution

3. Clay triangle - a wire frame with porcelain

used to support a crucible

4. Wire gauze - used to spread heat of a

burner flame

5. Test tube - used as holder of small amount

of solution

6. Forceps - holds or pick up small objects

2
7. Graduated cylinder - measures
approximate volume of liquids

8. Graduated pipette - measures solution

volumes

9. Condenser - used in distillation

10. Crucible - used to heat a small amount of a

solid substance at a very high temperature

11. Funnel - used to transfer solids and liquids

without spilling

12. Thermometer - measures temperature

3
13. Balance - measures mass of material

14. pH meter - measures acidity of solutions

15. Centrifuge - separates materials of varying

density

16. Pipette - used to transfer measured

substances into another vessel

17. Droppers - for addition of liquids, drop by

drop

18. Glass funnels - for funneling liquids from

one container to another, or for filtering
when equipped with filter paper.

19. Ring stand (with rings or clamps) - for
holding pieces of glassware in place.

20. Test tubes - for holding small samples or

for containing small-scale reactions

21. Test-tube holders - for holding test tubes

when tubes should not be touched

22. Tongs - similar function to forceps, but are

useful for larger items

23. Volumetric flasks - to measure precise

volumes of liquid or to make precise
dilutions.

24. Wash bottles - for dispensing small

quantities of distilled water.

25. Watch glasses - for holding small samples

or for covering beakers or evaporating
dishes.

26. Viscometer is an instrument used to
measure the viscosity of a fluid

27. A Thistle Tube is an important piece of

laboratory glassware consisting of a tube,
with a reservoir and funnel like shape at
the top. This lab glassware is used by
chemists/researchers to add liquid to an
existing system of apparatus. A thistle tube
is specially designed to allow insertion
through a small hole present in some
stoppers, this allows the tube to be
inserted into a different kinds of flasks.

28. Water bath is a device used for regulating

the temperature of substances subjected
to heat.

29. The test tube rack is used to hold test

tubes while reactions happen in them or
while they are not needed.

30. Stoppers come in many different sizes. The

sizes are from 0 to 8. Stoppers can have
holes for thermometers and for other
probes that may be used.

31. The stir rods are used to stir things. They

are usually made of glass. Stir Rods are
very useful in the lab setting.

 32. The Mortar and Pestle are used to crush
solids into powders for experiments,
usually to better dissolve the solids.

33. The Microspatula, commonly called a

spatula, is used for moving small amounts
of solid from place to place.

34. The Florence Flask is used for heating

substances that need to be heated evenly.
The bulbed bottom allows the heat to
distribute through the liquid more evenly.
The Florence Flask is mostly used in
distillation experiments.

35. The Evaporating Dish is used to heat and

evaporate liquids.

36. The Erlenmeyer flask is used to heat and

store liquids.
