Rara Lab Equipment
Bunsen Burner
- A common laboratory instrument that
produces a hot, sootless, non-luminous

flame.
- A flat heated surface (or a set of these),
- Allows for precise regulation of the
typically portable, used for cooking food or
mixing of gas and oxygen in its central

barrel before combustion, which ignites the
flame.
Digital Scale
- A digital scale is a measurement device used
to Measure the weight or mass of an object
or substance.
Test Tube
- A thin glass tube closed at one end,
- Used to hold small amounts of materials
for laboratory testing or experiments
- Test tubes are widely used by chemists to
hold, mix, or heat small quantities of solid
or liquid chemicals, especially for
qualitative experiments and assays.
- Their round bottom and straight sides
minimize mass loss when pouring, make

apparatus that is used to support a crucible
being heated by a Bunsen burner or other
heat source.
Scoopula Beaker
- Lab settings to transfer solids - Beakers are used for holding liquids and
measuring them.
Burette
Test Tube Clamp - A graduated tube that has a tap at the end.
- Metal prongs to hold a test tube - Used to dispense and measure variable
amounts of liquid or sometimes gas within
chemical and industrial testing specially for
the titration process in volumetric analysis.
- Can be specified according to their volume,
resolution, and accuracy of dispensing.
Florence Flask
- A glass container with a round bottom
Evaporating Dish
- Glassware containers used for laboratory
testing.
- Used for the evaporation of liquids and
solutions to produce a solid substance or
concentrated solutions.
- Shallow flat round surface to promote

evaporation.
- Used to pour liquids in smaller amounts
Litmus Paper Iron Ring
- Paper stained with litmus used to indicate - An iron ring is an item of laboratory
acidity or alkalinity of a substance. equipment which comprises a conjoined
metal ring and radially-extending rod.
- In some cases, the rod terminates in a screw
clamp for attachment to a retort stand or
other support;
- in others, the rod may be attached to a stand
by means of a laboratory clamp holder.
Emergency Shower
- An emergency shower is a unit designed to
wash an individual's head and body which
has come into contact with hazardous
chemicals
Crucible
- A crucible is a melting pot used for
extremely hot chemical reactions — the
crucible needs to be melt-proof.
Watch Glass
- A watch glass is a circular concave piece of
glass used in chemistry as a surface to
evaporate a liquid, to hold solids while

the support ring that is attached to the ring
stand between the Bunsen burner and the
beakers to support the beakers or other
glassware or flasks during heating
Ring Stand
- A ring stand is a piece of scientific
equipment, to which clamps can be attached
to hold test tubes and other equipment such
as burettes which are most often used in Erlenmeyer Flask
titration experiments. - A conical, flat-bottomed laboratory flask
with a narrow neck
- Erlenmeyer flasks are used to contain
liquids and for mixing, heating, cooling,
incubation, filtration, storage, and other
liquid-handling processes. Their slanted
sides and narrow necks allow the contents to
be mixed by swirling without the risk of
spills, which is useful for titrations and for
boiling liquids.
6. Always follow the rules and don’t do
anything not allowed.
7. Tell the teacher if you broke something
and if you spilled something.
8. Wear closed toe shoes.
9. Use common sense.
