Graduated Cylinder

Graduated cylinders are often used to measure the volume of a liquid.

Thermometer
Thermometers utilize a range of physical effects to measure temperature.
Temperature sensors are used in a wide variety of scientific and engineering
applications, especially measurement systems.

Pipette Bulb
Pipette Bulb to transport a measured volume of liquid

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

Forceps
Forceps are used when fingers are too large to grasp small objects or when
many objects need to be held at one time while the hands are used to
perform a task

Beaker
A common use for polypropylene beakers is gamma spectral analysis of
liquid and solid samples.

1.

Crucible tongs are large pincers made of welded steel that are used to
grasp and take a hot crucible out of a fire or furnace, or to move
acrucible from one location to another. They are used for safety in labs.

1.

A Bunsen burner, named after and invented by Robert Bunsen, is a


common piece of laboratory equipment that produces a single open
gas flame, which is used forheating, sterilization, and combustion.

crucible and cover


A crucible and cover is used to hold small amounts of chemicals during
heating at high temperatures. The lid covers the bowl so nothing escapes, or
to keep oxygen out of the reaction.

hot plate
This laboratory hot plate with magnetic stirrer is used for preparing
chemicals used in scientific research.

Spot plate
a spot plate is used to hold small amount of samples for testing.

Mortars and pestles


Mortars and pestles were traditionally used in pharmacies to crush various
ingredients prior to preparing an extemporaneous prescription.

Droppers
Droppers are used to transfer small quantities of liquids

volume metric flask


Volumetric flasks are used for precise dilutions and preparation of standard
solutions.

triple beam balance


1.

The triple beam balance is used to measure masses very precisely; the
reading error is 0.05 gram. With the pan empty, move the three sliders on
the three beams to their leftmost positions, so that the balance readszero.

Funnel
A funnel is a pipe with a wide, often conical mouth and a narrow stem. It is
used to channel liquid or fine-grained substances into containers with a small
opening.

test tube holder


Used to hold a hot test tube.

spatulas
spatulas and microspatulas are small stainless steel utensils, used for
scraping, transferring, or applying powders and paste like chemicals or
treatments.

iron stand
An iron ring is attached to a ring stand and is used to support laboratory
equipment above the work surface.

burette
A burette (also buret) is a device used in analytical chemistry for the
dispensing of variable, measured amounts of a chemical solution.

watch glass
a watch glass is often used to house solids being weigh on the scale.

wire gauze
This means that an object placed over this type of wire gauze will receive a
more uniform heat from a Bunsen burner than the naked flameof it.

erlenmeyer flask
The tapered sides and narrow neck of this flask allow the contents of the
flask to be mixed by swirling, without risk of spillage, making them suitable
for titrations.

wash bottle
wash bottle used to rinse various pieces of laboratory glassware, such as test
tubes and round bottom flasks.

Test tubes
Test tubes are widely used by chemists to hold, mix, or heat small quantities
of solid or liquid chemicals, especially for qualitativeexperiments and assays.

measuring pipet
it is used to measure specific ammounts of solution

stirring rod
A stirring rod is used for mixing liquid.

rubber stopper
A rubber stopper is a small, tapered plug used to seal the openings of test
tubes, flasks and other laboratory glassware.

alcohol lamp
Alcohol lamps are ideal for laboratories where there is no gas. They use
common alcohol to produce a smokeless and residue-free flame. the flame is
cooler than that of a Bunsen burner.

Test tube racks


Test tube racks are commonly used in laboratories to keep test tubes upright
so that the equipment does not roll away, spill or become accidentally
cracked.

Iron rings
Iron rings are commonly used in chemistry laboratories for supporting
apparatus above the work surface
