Laboratory Glassware

In a laboratory setting, the use of borosilicate glass equipment is essential for various scientific experiments due to its durability and resistance to thermal shock. Common items include beakers for mixing and heating solutions, Imhoff cones for sedimentation studies, and bottles for storing chemicals securely. Flask shapes, such as Erlenmeyer or volumetric, are vital for precise measurements and reactions. Moreover, pipettes allow for accurate liquid transfers, while funnels facilitate the pouring of substances without spillage. Jars serve as versatile containers, accommodating everything from samples to reagents. Together, these tools contribute to the effectiveness and safety of laboratory work, enabling researchers to conduct their experiments efficiently and reliably.

1. Beakers

  • Used for mixing, stirring, and heating liquids.

  • Available in various sizes (50 ml – 2000 ml).

  • Common in schools, research labs, and industries.

2. Flasks

  • Erlenmeyer Flask: Ideal for titration, heating, and storing solutions.

  • Volumetric Flask: Used for accurate preparation of standard solutions.

  • Round Bottom Flask: Suitable for distillation and heating under uniform temperature.

3. Test Tubes

  • Small cylindrical tubes for chemical reactions on a small scale.

  • Used in biology, chemistry, and medical labs.

4. Pipettes & Burettes

  • Pipettes: Measure and transfer small volumes of liquids precisely.

  • Burettes: Essential for titration experiments to deliver exact liquid volumes.

5. Measuring Cylinders

  • Used to measure accurate liquid volumes.

  • Easier to read than beakers.

6. Desiccators

  • Store moisture-sensitive samples.

  • Common for chemical and biological specimens.

7. Funnels

  • Help in transferring liquids and filtration.

  • Separating Funnels: Used in liquid–liquid extractions.

8. Petri Dishes

  • Widely used in microbiology for culturing bacteria & fungi.

9. Condensers

  • Used in distillation and reflux operations.

  • Help condense vapors back into liquid.

10. Watch Glass

  • Small concave glass used for evaporation, weighing solids, or as a lid.
