INVENTORY LIST FOR LABORATORY EQUIPMENT IN SCIENCE
QUANTIT UNIT DESCRIPTION REMARKS
Y 1. Microscope – enlarges small objects that cannot be seen by the naked eye. 2. Volumetric flask – calibrated for exact measurement of liquids and solutions. 3. Bunsen burner – produces flame for heating and sterilization 4. Magnifying glass – has a convex lens for object enlargement 5. Dropper – also called Pasteur pipette, is a short glass or plastic pipe with rubber on one side. It is used to deliver small amounts of liquids a single drop at a time. 6. Thermometer – measures the temperature of substance 7. Tongs – grasps and lifts hot vessels and harmful substances. 8. Test tube – a common type of lab vessel used to hold and mix liquid substances. 9. Watch glass – used to hold solids, evaporate liquids and heat small quantities of a substance. 10. Crucible – is heat-resistant and is ideal for containing compounds when heated to high temperatures. 11. Beakers – just like test tubes, beakers are used to hold, heat, or mix substances. 12. Spatula – used to scoop and transfer solids. 13. Spring Balance – used to measure the weight of an object by the tension of a spring. 14. Graduated cylinder – used to measure the volume of a liquid. 15. Burette – used to deliver known volumes of a substance. 16. Balance – used to weigh objects. 17. Funnels – used to deliver substances into vessels with small openings. 18. Wash bottle – used to rinse lab glassware and for sterilization. 19. Ammeter – used to measure the amount of current in a circuit. 20. Brushes for test tubes – used to clean containers such as flasks, beakers, and test tubes.
