Chemistry Flasks - A Good Friend

Chemistry Flasks - A Good FriendChemistry Flasks is just one of the many tools that come with chemistry courses. While they might not seem important, they are! You cannot learn everything in a science class or at a university - you need to take notes, write reports, research and remember things you learned. Most people have a lot of chemistry flasks around the house so they will not need to buy a new one every few months.Each flask can hold up to five ounces of liquid at any given time. This is much more than enough to show a two-year old how to do something for a science fair project. They are ideal for collecting liquid samples, analyzing their composition, and making chemical reactions.There are many different shapes, sizes, and materials of the flasks available on the market. Some have spouts, which allow them to be used as measuring devices for chemicals. If you do not use the spout, some have special measuring tools for making chemical reactions. In the 'made for science' categ ory are the chemical goggles and prismatic bottles.Chemicals in chemical eye goggles are designed to filter out particles that come into contact with the eyes. These chemicals are inert and are intended to work on some of the germs and bacteria that are found in the environment.A prismatic bottle has a cylindrical surface instead of a flat top, and a lens is used to keep a light source at a precise distance from the chemical. These are good at keeping light from disturbing the samples being studied.Another flask, called a 'flaskade' because it looks like an airplane cockpit glass cockpit, has a vessel that features a tube coming out of the bottom. The tube is filled with a specific concentration of a chemical and is blown. This is very similar to blow molding for molding, except that flasksade also can hold water.They can be used to add or remove chemicals or even create new chemical instruments. As a teacher or student you will find that these are good tools to have around for work ing with simple chemicals.
