Topic 2 Laboratory Exploration

 Learn: To understand the uses and names of Laboratory equipment's

Hey everyone,

Today's tasks was Laboratory Exploration.

My second week in Science was great I learnt the equipment's that scientist use to discover and look into deep information about something. There are 20 equipment's above in the table I made that I myself and the students that is in my Science group is going to use in person. I learnt what are these equipment's used for, learn more below.

Uses of the equipment's 

1. An ammeter is a device called is used to measure current.

2. A spring Balance is used to weigh little things or light things.

11. Water bottles 

12. A crucible is a metal container which metals or other substances may be melted in very high temperatures.

13. Test tubes is used to handle chemicals and used pieces of laboratory ware.

14. Funnels to hep liquids substances into containers with a small opening.

15. A Burette is used to measure the volume of a liquid or a gas. 

16. Weighting machine is used to weigh objects

17. Spatula helps scraping, transferring and applying powders.

18. A Volumetric Flask contain a precise volume at a certain temperature. 

19. A Pipette is used to transfer small quantities of liquid.
