A number of units of measurement were used in the Philippines to measure various quantities including mass, area, and capacity. The metric system has been compulsory in the country since 1860, during the late Spanish colonial period. [1]
Flasks are narrow-necked glass containers, typically conical or spherical, used in a laboratory to hold reagents or samples. Examples flasks include the Erlenmeyer flask, Florence flask, and Schlenk flask. Reagent bottles are containers with narrow openings generally used to store reagents or samples. Small bottles are called vials.
Vial of vaccine and syringe Examples of modern flat-bottomed plastic vials Sterile single-use vial of eye drops. A vial (also known as a phial or flacon) is a small glass or plastic vessel or bottle, often used to store medication in the form of liquids, powders, or capsules.
At the opening(s) at top of the neck of some glass flasks such as round-bottom flasks, retorts, or sometimes volumetric flasks, there are outer (or female) tapered (conical) ground glass joints. Some flasks, especially volumetric flasks, come with a laboratory rubber stopper , bung , or cap for capping the opening at the top of the neck.
Though officially the Philippines became entirely metric in 1860, this value was still in use well into the 20th century. [ 3 ] Cavan was reported in the late 19th century as a measure for rice equivalent to 98.28 litres. [ 4 ]
A 100 ml volumetric flask with stopper Volumetric flasks of various sizes. A volumetric flask (measuring flask or graduated flask) is a piece of laboratory apparatus, a type of laboratory flask, calibrated to contain a precise volume at a certain temperature. Volumetric flasks are used for precise dilutions and preparation of standard solutions ...
Conversion and its related terms yield and selectivity are important terms in chemical reaction engineering.They are described as ratios of how much of a reactant has reacted (X — conversion, normally between zero and one), how much of a desired product was formed (Y — yield, normally also between zero and one) and how much desired product was formed in ratio to the undesired product(s) (S ...
Round flasks. A flask is a type of tooling used to contain a mold in metal casting.A flask has only sides, and no top or bottom, and forms a frame around the mold, which is typically made of molding sand.
