Lab Equipment Idenification

Lab Equipment Identification

Beaker

General purpose glassware used for mixing solutions and transporting chemicals at low temperatures, not for measuring volumes.

Erlenmeyer flask

General purpose glassware with sloped sides for mixing liquids, functions similarly to a beaker.

Volumetric flask

Calibrated glassware for precise volume measurements at a specific temperature, used for dilutions and standard solutions.

Test tube

General purpose glassware for mixing and examining contents, transporting chemicals.

Test tube rack

Support for test tubes, caution hot test tubes can melt it.

Graduated Cylinders

Glassware for accurate liquid volume measurements, with markings like 50mL and 10mL, read volumes at the bottom of the meniscus.

Watch Glass

Used to evaporate liquids gently, can serve as a beaker lid.

Rubber Stopper

Acts as a lid for flasks and test tubes.

Scoopula
