A boiling tube is a large test tube intended specifically for boiling liquids. A test tube filled with water and upturned into a water-filled beaker is often used to capture gases, e.g. in electrolysis demonstrations. A test tube with a stopper is often used for temporary storage of chemical or biological samples.
A Thiele tube can be used to measure the boiling point of a liquid by the Siwoloboff method. A sample in a fusion tube is attached to a thermometer with a rubber band, and immersed in the tube. A sealed capillary, open end pointing down, is placed in the fusion tube. The Thiele tube is heated; dissolved gases evolve from the sample first.
A Kugelrohr (German for "ball tube") is a short-path vacuum distillation apparatus [1]: 150 typically used to distill relatively small amounts of compounds with high boiling points (usually greater than 300 °C) under greatly reduced pressure.
A Thiele tube is an alternative heating vessel. The Siwoloboff method is used to determine the boiling point of small samples of liquid chemicals. A sample in an ignition tube (also called a fusion tube) is attached to a thermometer with a rubber band, and immersed in a Thiele tube, water bath, or other suitable medium for heating. A sealed ...
These tubes are usually made of glass, but can also be made of plastic or metal. They vary in size and purpose. Laboratory sample tubes must not be confused with glass tubing, which can be utilized to carry fluid between laboratory equipment. Example laboratory sample tubes are listed below: Ignition tube; Test tube; Boiling tube; NMR tube
Circulating water baths (also called stirrers [10]) are ideal for applications when temperature uniformity and consistency are critical, such as enzymatic and serologic experiments. Water is thoroughly circulated throughout the bath resulting in a more uniform temperature.
The boiling water trick. The boiling water trick is one of the more popular experiments featured on social media during cold weather. As experimenters throw steaming water, a white cloud is left ...
While the outward designs of apparatuses can vary greatly, most apparatuses use a sample loaded into a sealed capillary tube (melting-point tube), which is then placed in the apparatus. The sample is then heated, either by a heating block or an oil bath, and as the temperature increases, the sample is observed to determine when the phase change ...
