(B) A tall-form or Berzelius beaker (C) A flat beaker or crystallizer Philips beaker which can be swirled like a conical flask. Standard or "low-form" (A) beakers typically have a height about 1.4 times the diameter. [3] The common low form with a spout was devised by John Joseph Griffin and is therefore sometimes called a Griffin beaker.
An example is Heller's test where a test tube containing proteins has strong acids added to it. A cloudy ring forms where the substances meet, indicating the acids are denaturing the proteins. The cloud is a sign that proteins are present in a liquid.
The aqueous phase is being drained into the beaker. A separatory funnel , also known as a separation funnel , separating funnel , or colloquially sep funnel , is a piece of laboratory glassware used in liquid-liquid extractions to separate ( partition ) the components of a mixture into two immiscible solvent phases of different densities . [ 1 ]
Laboratory drying rack can contain and dry up various types of laboratory glassware such as beaker, Erlenmeyer flask, volumetric flask, and graduated cylinder. Laboratory drying rack is usually used to dry up the tube in the laboratory; for example, it can help in drying test tube , boiling tube , and Thiele tube .
Decanting a liquid from a solid. Decantation is a process for the separation of mixtures of immiscible liquids or of a liquid and a solid mixture such as a suspension. [1] The layer closer to the top of the container—the less dense of the two liquids, or the liquid from which the precipitate or sediment has settled out—is poured off, leaving denser liquid or the solid behind.
Wire gauze may be woven from metals including iron, [5] steel, [6] copper, [7] and nichrome. [8] Nichrome alloy provides long life expectancy and tear resistance. [ 5 ] [ 8 ] The edges of the wire gauze are turned inward to help prevent fraying, [ 5 ] improve handling, and eliminate sharp protruding wire ends.
Schematic drawing of a hydrometer. The lower the density of the fluid, the deeper the weighted float B sinks. The depth is read off the scale A. A hydrometer or lactometer is an instrument used for measuring density or relative density of liquids based on the concept of buoyancy.
A Fleaker is a brand of container for liquids used in the laboratory. It can be described as a cross between the Griffin beaker and the Erlenmeyer flask. [1]Like a beaker, the bottom is flat, with the sides meeting the bottom at a 90-degree angle.
