Science "Tools"

I learnt about the different tools used in experiments and their respective uses.I also learnt how to draw the apparatus correctly. Some errors may include:


  • Leaving gaps in between the lines (figure 1)
  • 2.Drawing slanted lines where it shouldn’t slant (figure 2).
    3. Drawing the apparatus in 3D(figure 3) 


    .(figure 3)


    • What is a "Burette" or a "Pipette"?
    A burette, or buret, is a uniform-bore glass tube with fine gradations and a stopcock at the bottom, used especially in laboratory procedures for accurate fluid dispensing and measurement. 

    The buret is commonly used in titrations to measure precisely how much liquid is used. 

    A pipette is a slender pipe or tube into which small amounts of liquids are taken up by suction to allow a chemist to remove, transfer, or measure a substance.


    Even thought both look almost the same, but their useage differ. The range they can measure also differs. I finally understood their uses and their difference after reading through some notes and researching on it.
