Glass, metal and precision: in every chemistry lab this equipment is part of a researcher's toolkit. Recognise the test tube, Erlenmeyer flask, beaker, microscope, Bunsen burner, pipette, Petri dish, graduated cylinder, funnel, mortar, centrifuge and round-bottom flask. Good to know: The test tube is a narrow glass tube, rounded at the bottom, for small samples. It often sits in a test-tube rack. The Erlenmeyer flask is conical with a flat bottom and narrow neck. This lets you swirl the contents safely. The beaker is a cylindrical vessel with a spout and scale. It is the all-purpose vessel in the lab. The microscope magnifies tiny objects many hundredfold through lenses. The sample goes on a glass slide. The Bunsen burner produces a hot, adjustable gas flame. The air supply controls the flame's colour. The pipette dispenses small volumes of liquid precisely. A bulb or plunger draws the liquid up. The Petri dish is a flat round dish with a lid for cell cultures. Bacteria grow on nutrient agar inside.
