separatory funnel

It is used in liquid-liquid extractions to separate components of a mixture into two immiscible solvent phases of different densities.

stirring rod

glass stirring rod, glass rod, stirring rod or stir rod is a piece of laboratory equipment used to mix chemicals and liquids for laboratory purposes.

crucible tongs

scissor-like tools, but instead of having two blades, these tools are replaced with two pincers or pieces of metals that concave together, which allow the users to grasp a hot crucible, flasks, evaporating dishes, or even small beakers.

Beaker

A beaker is a simple "container" which is used for heating and stirring liquids in laboratories. These are generally in cylindrical shape with a flat bottom.

Buret

A burette (also buret) is a laboratory equipment used in analytical chemistry for the dispensing of variable amount of a chemical solution and measuring that amount at the same time. ... A volumetric burette delivers measured volumes of liquid.

graduated pipet

A graduated pipette is a pipette with its volume, in increments, marked along the tube. It is used to accurately measure and transfer a volume of liquid from one container to another.

Bunsen burner

A laboratory equipment that produces a single open gas flame, which is used for heating, sterilization, and combustion.

thermometer

A thermometer is a device that measures temperature or a temperature gradient.

Volumetric flask

A volumetric flask (measuring flask or graduated flask) is a piece of laboratory glassware, a type of laboratory flask, calibrated to contain a precise volume at a particular temperature. Volumetric flasks are used for precise dilutions and preparation of standard solutions.

volumetric pipet

A volumetric pipette or bulb pipette allows extremely accurate measurement (to four significant figures)of the volume of a solution.

ring stand

An item of laboratory equipment consisting of a metal pole with a solid, firm base, used to hold or clamp laboratory glassware and other equipment in place, so that it does not fall down or come apart.

. Wide Mouth bottle or gas collecting bottle

Glass, used with pneumatic trough

Side arm flask

The side arm flask is used to filter water by a vacuum filter action system.

Triple beam balance abs the double beam balance

The triple beam balance is an instrument used to measure mass very precisely. The difference in size of the beams indicate the difference in weights and reading scale that each beam carry. Both the triple beam balance and double beam balance are used to measure the weight of an object, and are commonly used in the classroom to teach students the basics in mass and weight of objects.

pipet filler

They are used to safely fill glass and plastic pipettes. The three-valve design allows you to release air, draw liquid into the pipette, and accurately regulate or release liquid. Works with all larger sizes of Mohr's, serological, or volumetric pipettes.

Dropper bottle

They are used to transfer small quantities of liquids. They are usually glass tubes tapered to a narrow point, and fitted with a rubber bulb at the top.

Thistle tube

Thistle tube is a piece of glassware and consists of a shaft tube with a funnel- like section at the top.Thistle tubes are used to add an existing system or apparatus.

pinch clamp

Used to control flow of chemical and liquids through flexible tubing.

Erlenmeyer flask

a flask that has a flat bottom with a tapered neck. The mouth, or opening, is used for pouring solutions and may be closed with a stopper in order to store samples.

Crucible and lid

a kind of laboratory equipment that is usually a cup, made of porcelain or non-reactive metal, used to heat chemical compounds to very high temperatures using a bunsen burner.

dessicator

are sealable enclosures containing desiccants used for preserving moisture-sensitive items such as cobalt chloride paper for another use. A common use for desiccators is to protect chemicals which are hygroscopic or which react with water from humidity.

round bottom flask

as a sphere more evenly distributes stress across its surface. Round-bottom flasks are often used to contain chemical reactions run by chemists, especially for reflux set-ups and laboratory-scale synthesis.

watch glass

circular concave piece of glass used in chemistry as a surface to evaporate a liquid, to hold solids while being weighed, for heating a small amount of substance and as a cover for a beaker.

graduated cylinder

is a common piece of laboratory equipment used to measure the volume of a liquid.Each marked line on the graduated cylinder represents the amount of liquid that has been measured.

wash bottle

is a squeeze bottle with a nozzle, used to rinse various pieces of laboratory glassware, such as test tubes and round bottom flasks.

test tube holder

is used to hold Test Tubes. It is used for holding the test tube when the tube is hot or should not be touched. A test tube holder can be used to hold a test tube while it is being heated. When heating the tube with stuff inside, the tube holder will tightly hold the test tube for safe heating.

Utility clamp

piece of equipment used to hold objects such as test tubes or flasks

Buchner funnel

piece of laboratory equipment used in filtration. It is traditionally made of porcelain, but glass and plastic funnels are also available.

clay triangle

piece of laboratory equipment used in the process of heating substances by a Bunsen burner to support a crucible when it's being heated.

Burette clamp

piece of scientific equipment which is used specifically to hold and secure long tubes or thermometers on a stand, so that it is more convenient for the experiment.

funnel

pipe with a very wide mouth and a skinny. It's used to channel liquid or fine-grained substances into containers with a small opening.

funnel rack

rectangular rack used to hold funnels,funnel racks can be made of wood or wirecraft. Funnel racks can be big or small depending on what kind of funnels you are using for an experiment.

rubber bulb

used in chemistry laboratories, by placing them on top of a glass or plastic tube. It serves as a vacuum source for filling reagents through a pipette or pasteur pipette and also help control the flow of liquid from the dropping bottle.

Mortal and pestle

used to prepare ingredients for a Experiment or in the lab. They are made of wood, Metal,or granite. It Crushed the substance Down into a paste.

Test tube brush

used to clean test tubes and other glassware in a lab. A test tube brush or "spout brush" can also be used to clean flasks and beakers. The spout brush is made of nylon, fur bristles and a wire.

Condenser

used to condense (change the physical state of a substance from its gaseous to its liquid state).

wire gauze

used to cover the heating part of a Bunsen burner that objects are placed on. It is made heat resistant to endure the heat of a Bunsen burner.

Evaporating dish

used to evaporate excess solvents most commonly water, to produce a concentrated solution or a solid precipitate of the dissolved substance.

test tube rack

used to hold test tubes in place making sure no chemicals are spilled.

Ring clamps

used to support objects that might be difficult to support like a funnel.
