Laboratory activities always begin with familiarization of the common apparatuses used in the
laboratory. It is important that students identify and know the use of each apparatus so that they can
perform any activity guide easily.
Objectives: After the activity, the student are expected to:
1) To
_ know what lab apparatuses are needed for a certain task.
2) To
_ understand how a certain lab apparatuse is used.
3) To
_ know when and how a lab apparatuse is needed to be used.
APPARATUSES:
1. Alcohol lamp 17. Medicine dropper
2. Beaker 18. Mortar and pestle

PROCEDURE:
1. Draw each of the given apparatuses in long size bond papers. Utilize the front and the
back pages. (Note: fold one long size bond paper into four equal parts. One apparatus
should be drawn in each quarter.)
2. Give one use (complete sentence) of each apparatus.
3. Follow the format in the box above.

NOTE: The students are required to make a Periodic Table (latest) using ¼ illustration board. Write only the
symbols, the atomic numbers, and the atomic masses of the elements. Due – last week of Sept.
