  2. Dean–Stark apparatus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dean–Stark_apparatus

    This type has a tube at the bottom of the collection vessel to allow the organic solvent at the bottom to flow back into the reaction vessel. The water generated during the reaction floats on top of the organic phase. The entire volume must be drained to remove the water and the organic layer can be separated to be returned to the system.

  3. Structure of liquids and glasses - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Structure_of_liquids_and...

    The structure of glasses differs from the structure of liquids just above the glass transition temperature T g which is revealed by the XRD analysis [10] and high-precision measurements of third- and fifth-order non-linear dielectric susceptibilities. [11] Glasses are generally characterised by a higher degree of connectivity compared liquids. [12]

  4. Laboratory glassware - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Laboratory_glassware

    Glassware can be soaked in a detergent solution to remove grease and loosen most contaminations, these contaminations are then scrubbed with a brush or scouring pad to remove particles which cannot be rinsed. Sturdy glassware may be able to withstand sonication as an alternative to scrubbing. Solvents are used to remove organic residues that ...

  5. Separatory funnel - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Separatory_funnel

    A separatory funnel, also known as a separation funnel, separating funnel, or colloquially sep funnel, is a piece of laboratory glassware used in liquid-liquid extractions to separate (partition) the components of a mixture into two immiscible solvent phases of different densities. [1]

  6. Condenser (laboratory) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Condenser_(laboratory)

    The Snyder column is a wide glass tube divided into sections (usually 3 to 6) by horizontal glass partitions or constrictions. Each partition has a hole, into which seats a hollow glass bead with an inverted "teardrop" shape. Vigreux-like glass "fingers" limit the vertical motion of each bead. [24]

  7. Structural formula - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Structural_formula

    Skeletal structural formula of Vitamin B 12.Many organic molecules are too complicated to be specified by a molecular formula.. The structural formula of a chemical compound is a graphic representation of the molecular structure (determined by structural chemistry methods), showing how the atoms are connected to one another. [1]

  8. Beaker (laboratory equipment) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beaker_(laboratory_equipment)

    The presence of a spout 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. Alternatively, a beaker may be covered with another larger beaker that has been inverted, though a watch glass is preferable.

  9. Fischer projection - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fischer_projection

    In chemistry, the Fischer projection, devised by Emil Fischer in 1891, is a two-dimensional representation of a three-dimensional organic molecule by projection. Fischer projections were originally proposed for the depiction of carbohydrates and used by chemists, particularly in organic chemistry and biochemistry. The use of Fischer projections ...
