A funnel for hot filtration Two funnels, A - a simple stemmed funnel. B - a ground glass powder funnel. Plain funnels exist in various dimensions, with longer or shorter necks. Filter funnels have a neck of a thin capillary tube and ribs which increase the filter-papers' effectiveness and thus accelerate the process of filtering. [1]
A filter funnel is a laboratory funnel used for separating solids from liquids via the laboratory process of filtering. [1] In order to achieve this, a cone-like shaped piece of filter paper is usually folded into a cone and placed within the funnel. The suspension of solid and liquid is then poured through the funnel.
The tap-controlled outlet is designed to drain the liquid out of the funnel. On top of the funnel there is a standard taper joint which fits with a ground glass or Teflon stopper. [4] To use a separating funnel, the two phases and the mixture to be separated in solution are added through the top with the stopcock at the bottom closed.
A Büchner funnel with a sintered glass disc. A Büchner funnel is a piece of laboratory equipment used in filtration. [1] It is traditionally made of porcelain, but glass and plastic funnels are also available. On top of the funnel-shaped part there is a cylinder with a fritted glass disc/perforated
A dropping funnel or addition funnel is a type of laboratory glassware used to transfer liquids. They are fitted with a stopcock which allows the flow to be controlled. Dropping funnels are useful for adding reagents slowly, i.e. drop-wise.
Laboratory-scale liquid-liquid extraction. Photograph of a separatory funnel in a laboratory scale extraction of 2 immiscible liquids: liquids are a diethyl ether upper phase, and a lower aqueous phase. Soxhlet extractor. Extraction in chemistry is a separation process consisting of the separation of a substance from a matrix. The distribution ...
This occurs in five steps: 1) preparation of the separatory funnel with the two phase solvent system, 2) introduction of the compound mixture into the separatory funnel, 3) vigorous shaking of the separatory funnel to mix the two layers and allow for mass transfer of compounds in and out of the phases, 4) The contents of the separatory funnel ...
The solution is poured through a piece of filter paper folded into a cone in a glass funnel. Solids (or flocs) remain on the filter paper while the filtered solution is caught by a flask under the funnel. [6] If a large volume of solution is filtered, the filter paper will need to be changed in order to prevent clogging. [7]
