EXPERIMENT NO. 1 Aim: To study the Glass Apparatus. Requirements: 1. Apparatus Required: Beakers, volumetric flasks, conical flask, glass road, measuring cylinder, pipettes, test tube holders, funnel etc. Procedure: Study of Glass Apparatus of the following 1. BEAKER A beaker is a simple container for stirring, mixing and heating liquids commonly used in many laboratories. Beakers are generally cylindrical in shape, with a flat bottom and a lip for pouring. Many also have a small spout to aid pouring as shown in the picture. Beakers are available in a wide range of sizes, from one millilitre up to several litres. Shape Beakers are often graduated, that is, marked on the side with lines indicating the volume contained. For instance, a 250 mL beaker might be marked with lines to indicate 50, 100, 150, 200, and 250 mL of volume. These marks are not intended for obtaining a precise measurement of volume (a graduated cylinder would be a more appropriate instrument for such a task), but rather an estimation. The presence of a lip means that the beaker cannot have a lid. However, when in use, beakers may be covered by a watch glass to prevent contamination or loss of the contents, but allowing venting via the spout.

Function: The primary function of a beaker is to hold and work with liquids. If graduated, it can serve to make approximate measurements of liquid volume. The beaker is made of specialized glass so it can be heated and cooled without breaking. This type of glass makes the beaker brittle and it must be handled carefully. 2. PIPETTE Pipette is a laboratory instrument used to transport a measured volume of liquid.

Function: Pipettes are devices that allow the users to extract or deliver small amounts of a liquid. Pipettes come in a variety of designs with only two shown. Some are graduated to deliver exact quantities, but most allow for a "drop at a time" delivery.

3. STIRRER

MAGNETIC STIRRER A magnetic stirrer is a laboratory device consisting of either a rotating magnet or stationary electromagnets creating a rotating magnetic field. This device is used to cause a stir bar (aka a flea) immersed in a liquid to spin very quickly, agitating or mixing the liquid.

Function: The function of a stirrer is to agitate liquids for speeding up reactions or improving mixtures. The picture on the left is a magnetic stirrer used with hot plates. The picture on the right is a typical glass stirrer used in beakers or test tubes. 4. TEST TUBE A test tube, also known as a culture tube or sample tube, is a common piece of laboratory glassware consisting of a finger-like length of glass or clear plastic tubing, open at the top, usually with a rounded U-shaped bottom. A large test tube designed specifically for boiling liquids is called a boiling tube. Test tubes are available in a multitude of lengths and widths, typically from 10 to 20 mm wide and 50 to 200 mm long. The top often features a flared lip to aid pouring out the contents; some sources consider that the presence of a lip is what distinguishes a test tube from a culture tube. Some test tubes have a flat bottom; some are made so as to accept a ground glass stopper or a screw cap. They are often provided with a small ground glass or white glaze area near the top for labeling with a pencil.

Function: The function of a test tube is to hold a small experiment, which would be used to conduct an investigation. The test tube is made of specialized glass so it can be heated and cooled without breaking. This same type of glass makes the test tube brittle and it must be handled carefully. 5. TEST TUBE HOLDER A test tube holder is used in a laboratory and it is used to hold/ support test tubes. Although it is called a test tube holder it is also used to hold/ support piettes, etc.

It is a clamp that holds a test tube -- for instance to hold a test tube while heating it without getting burned. It is made from a thick piece of metal wire that is shaped into a spring-loaded clamp to securely hold a test tube.

Note the difference between a test tube clamp, and a test tube rack. A clamp is a way to hold a single test tube while heating the contents inside without actually touching the test tube itself. A rack is instead used to hold many test tubes at once in an upright position. See the Related Questions links to the left for more information on test tube racks. Function: The test tube holder obviously is designed to hold test tubes. However, it can be used to hold pipettes and stirring rods, etc. as well. 6. THERMOMETER Thermometer is a device that measures temperature or temperature gradient using a variety of different principles. A thermometer has two important elements: the temperature sensor (e.g. the bulb on a mercury thermometer) in which some physical change occurs with temperature, plus some means of converting this physical change into a value (e.g. the scale on a mercury thermometer). Thermometers increasingly use electronic means to provide a digital display or input to a computer.

Function: The thermometer is an instrument for determining temperature. Most laboratory thermometers are calibrated in the SI scale (degrees Celsius). 7. WASH BOTTLE A wash bottle is a squeeze bottle with a nozzle, usually used to rinse various pieces of laboratory glassware, such as test tubes and round bottom flasks. Most wash bottles are made up of polyethylene, which is solvent-resistant petroleum based plastic. Most bottles contain an internal straw allowing upright use. Usually, wash bottles are filled with deionized water. Wash bottles may also be filled with detergent solutions and rinse solvents such as acetone and ethanol. In biological labs it is common to keep sodium hypochlorite solution in a wash bottle to conveniently disinfect unneeded cultures. When pressure is applied to the bottle, the liquid inside becomes pressurized and is forced out the nozzle into a narrow stream of liquid. As always the case when transferring reagents between containers, for safety always ensure the label on the wash bottle matches the contents of the bottle, and do not mix reagents or return them to the original container. Additionally, wash bottles are not appropriate for long term storage and must never be used for dangerous reagents. Volatile liquids such as acetone

or methanol require a bleed hole to reduce dribbling - often a vent is integrated into the top of the internal straw.

Function: Wash bottles usually contain distilled water and makes for a convenient method to wash out test tubes or pipettes. Wash bottles can also be used to dispense chemicals into test tubes or micro-chemistry depression plates. 13. FLASKS Laboratory flasks are vessels (containers) which fall into the category of laboratory equipment known as glassware. In laboratory and other scientific settings, they are usually referred to simply as flasks. Flasks come in a number of shapes and a wide range of sizes, but a common distinguishing aspect in their shapes is a wider vessel "body" and one (or sometimes more) narrower tubular sections at the top called necks which have an opening at the top. Laboratory flask sizes are specified by the volume they can hold, typically in metric units such as milliliters (mL or ml) or liters (L or l). Laboratory flasks have traditionally been made of glass, but can also be made of plastic. List of flasks There are several types of laboratory flasks, all of which have different functions within the laboratory. The most common types of flask are: Erlenmeyer Flask or Conical Flask.

Round-Bottom Flask a flask with a spherical body and one or more necks with ground glass joints.

Florence Flask a flask with a round body and one longer neck without a ground glass joint.

Buchner Flask or sidearm flask a thick-walled conical flask with a short hose-connection tube on the side of the neck

Volumetric Flask for preparing liquids with volumes of high precision. It is a flask with an approximately pear-shaped body and a long neck with a circumferential fill line.

Dewar Flask a flask with a hollow space in the wall to hold a vacuum.

Function: The function of a flask is to hold and store liquids. If graduated, it can serve to make approximate measurements of volume. One of the main advantages of a flask is the fact that the mixing of its contents can be done with little or no spillage. The flask is made of specialized glass so it can be heated and cooled without breaking. This same type of glass makes the flask brittle and it must be handled carefully. A stopper or cover allows for storage of liquids. Result: We study all glass apparatus. Reference: A Text of Pharmaceutical analysis by Amit Kumar Page No 28-54.

EXPERIMENT NO. 2 AIM: To study the operation of Analytical Balance. Requirements 1. Apparatus Required: Analytical Balances, weight box & fractional weight box etc. Procedure: Study of Analytical Balance An analytical balance is used to measure mass to a very high degree of precision and accuracy. The weighing pan(s) of a high precision (0.1 mg or better) analytical balance are inside a transparent enclosure with doors so that dust does not collect and so any air currents in the room do not affect the balance's operation. The use of a vented balance safety enclosure, which has uniquely designed acrylic airfoils, allows a smooth turbulence-free airflow that prevents balance fluctuation and the weighing of mass down to 1 g without fluctuations or loss of product. Also, the sample must be at room temperature to prevent natural convection from forming air currents inside the enclosure, affecting the weighing. Analytical precision is achieved by maintaining a constant load on the balance beam, by subtracting mass on the same side of the beam to which the sample is added. The final balance is achieved by using a small spring force rather than subtracting fixed weights. Weight of rider is 10 mg. Function: The function of a balance is to mass objects. [NOTE: If the device is measuring an object using springs against gravity, the devise is correctly referred to as a scale and its measurements are described as weight not mass.] A balance uses a comparison of a known substance or calibration with the unknown object to determine the unknown object's mass. Result: We study the operation of analytical balance. Reference: A Text of Pharmaceutical analysis by Amit Kumar Page No 29-30.
