  2. Swan neck flask - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Swan_neck_flask

    A swan neck flask, also known as a gooseneck flask, is a round-bottom flask with a narrow s-shaped tube as its opening to reduce contact between the inner contents and external environment. The motion of air through the tube is slowed and aerosolized bacteria or other particles in the air tend to become trapped by moisture on the tube's inner ...

    The vessel is then heated to a known temperature, such as in a boiling water bath, causing the entire sample to vaporize and completely displace the air from the vessel. The vessel is then sealed, such as with a flame to melt the neck of a glass flask, dried, and re-weighed.

  5. Round-bottom flask - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Round-bottom_flask

    Flat-bottomed flask: A flask with similar uses as the round-bottom flask, but with a flat bottom that allows it to stand on a level surface. Florence flask: A flask similar to the flat-bottomed flask that has round bodies and either a round bottom or a flat bottom so that one can stand the flask on a level surface. Florence flasks typically ...

  6. Soxhlet extractor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Soxhlet_extractor

    The non-soluble portion of the extracted solid remains in the thimble, and is usually discarded. Like Soxhlet extractor, the Kumagawa extractor has a specific design where the thimble holder/chamber is directly suspended inside the solvent flask (having a vertical large opening) above the boiling solvent.

  7. Laboratory flask - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Laboratory_flask

    Volumetric flask is used 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 is a double-walled flask having a near-vacuum between the two walls. These come in a variety of shapes and sizes; some are large and tube-like, others ...

  8. Vacuum flask - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vacuum_flask

    A vacuum flask (also known as a Dewar flask, Dewar bottle or thermos) is an insulating storage vessel that slows the speed at which its contents change in temperature. It greatly lengthens the time over which its contents remain hotter or cooler than the flask's surroundings by trying to be as adiabatic as possible.

  9. Gooseneck (fixture) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gooseneck_(fixture)

    A gooseneck is a semi-rigid, flexible joining element made from a coiled metal hose. Similar to its natural counterpart , it can be bent in almost any direction and remain in that position. [ 1 ] Areas of application for goosenecks are movable brackets for lights , magnifying glasses , microphones and other devices. [ 2 ]
