Cards

Term
safety goggles
Definition
must be worn at all times in the lab. They provide protection against glass or chmical both from the front and the sides

Term
lab apron
Definition

provides partial protection against chemical spills, are only resistant to chemical action, undertoe procedure for removing

Term
lab burner
Definition

operate with station valve fully open and gas intake closed as much as possible. Burner vavle should be open until a fluttering sound is present and no glow from the grid at the top.

The Amount of heat applied to an object or container is Not Controlled With The Valve. The Intensity of heating is controlled by the distance of the object and the rapid movement of the object or burner.

Term
ring/ring stand
Definition

principle support apparatis for heating a variety of objects. Greatest hazards are poor assembly and not giving adequet time to cool

Term
crucible
Definition

highest temperature container, can be exposed directly to the flame, Cover is used to keep oxygen out, not keep chemicals in

Term
pipestem triangle
Definition

used to support the crucible and can also be used as a support for the funnel

Term
crucible tongs
Definition

uses to move crucible and crucible cover when very hot. two-handed technicle for removole

Term
large test tube
Definition

used for heating. Since solids require prolonged heating they normally are supported with utility clamp Near The Rim.

Term
small test tube
Definition

used for mixing chemicals and observation. Very dangerous to heat except in hot water bath

Term
wire gauze
Definition

must be used with beaker, flourince, erlenmeye, and dished when heating

Term
beaker/beaker tonges
Definition

all purpose poring, holding, and holding container for liquids. The graduations Do Not give Accurate Volume measurments.

Term
evaporating dish
Definition

used to evaporate water from solutions and recover solids that are not ususally sensitive to heat. Weigh before experiment.

Term
flourence flask
Definition

normally used as aboiling flask and used when it is desiralbe to control or direct the vapors in the boiling process. Usually used for distillation or with liquids with hazardous vapors.

Term
erlenmeyer flask
Definition

usually used to mix substances or to form solutions. used in the titration process for mixing. Used as a substutue for flor. flask and graduations Are Approximate.

Term
graduated cylinders
Definition

used to measure volume of liquids, must be taken at eye level from the bottom of the meniscus, plastic ring is kept near the top. Do Not mix in this or use the small cylinder to Dispence an accurate volume.

Term
glass rod
Definition

Not For Stiring. use to transfer a drop for "testing" and as an aid for pouring from a reagent bottle to a beaker.

Term
hydrogen paper
Definition

test chemicals and their pH balance

Term
filtering funnel
Definition

used for filtering. Mass filter paper before the experiment.

Term
spatula/scoop
Definition

used for transfering solids. can be a large source of contamination. Never used to obtain stock chemicals.

Term
rubber placement
Definition

used to help transfer solids form flask to beakers (usually for filtration)

Term
dropping pipette
Definition

used to dispense one or more drops of chemical. A major source of contamination error in procedure.

Term
lab thermometer
Definition

measures temperatures. Degree Celcius.

Term
stoppers/glass tubing
Definition

solid stoppers seal test tubes or flask. One-hole stoppers are connected to glass and rubber tubing usually to direct gases to a different place.

Term
reagent bottles
Definition

used to store and transport chemicals from bulk supplies.

Term
mortal and pestal
Definition

used to grind not pound chemicals into a fine powder for rapid reaction or dissolving. Do Not heat or steal.

Term
electronic blances
Definition

gives Accurate mass measurements
