An evaporating dish is a piece of laboratory glassware used for the evaporation of solutions and supernatant liquids, [a] and sometimes to their melting point.Evaporating dishes are used to evaporate excess solvents – most commonly water – to produce a concentrated solution or a solid precipitate of the dissolved substance.
Unlike wire gauze, which primarily supports glassware such as beakers, flasks, or evaporating dishes and provides indirect heat transfer to the glassware, the pipeclay triangle normally supports a crucible and allows the flame to heat the crucible directly. The triangular shape allows rounded crucibles of various sizes to rest in a stable way.
A vacuum tight seal and stability of the Büchner flask and filter are essential during the filtration process. A Büchner ring can be used with Büchner funnels, flasks, glass crucibles and Gooch crucibles. The wide flange and large surface contact ensures an excellent vacuum tight seal whilst the rings are easy to remove and offer excellent ...
Glass evaporating dishes, such as watch glasses, are primarily used as an evaporating surface (though they may be used to cover a beaker.) The Petri dish is a flat dish filled with a nutritious gelatin that allows for microorganisms to quickly grow, its named after its inventor Julius Petri in the 1880s.
A crucible is a container in which metals or other substances may be melted or subjected to very high temperatures. Although crucibles have historically tended to be made out of clay, [1] they can be made from any material that withstands temperatures high enough to melt or otherwise alter its contents.
A Gooch crucible, named after Frank Austin Gooch, [1] is a filtration device for laboratory use (and was also called a Gooch filter [2]). It is convenient for collecting a precipitate directly within the vessel in which it is to be dried, possibly ashed , and finally weighed in gravimetric analysis .
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.
Since crucible tongs work with the crucible, one must know the safety procedures of the crucible. Before using the crucible, make sure that it is dry; Fill the crucible with sample chemicals to only 1/2 or 2/3, do not fill until it is full; If the user used the crucible to fuse the glass, waiting for the crucible to cool down before cleaning it
