 A beaker is used for dissolving, mixing,

and heating liquids.

 An Erlenmeyer flask/Florence flask is
used as a reaction vessel and sometimes
as a gas generator. It is used to hold
liquid or solution to be heated.
 A volumetric flask is used for diluting and
preparing accurate volume of solution.
 A distilling flask is used for distilling liquids.
 A test tube is used as a reaction vessel
for experiments involving small amounts
of reactants.
 A porcelain crucible with cover is used
for high temperature ignition.
 An evaporating dish is used for heating
and evaporating solutions.
 A mortar and pestle is used for mixing
and grinding solids.
 A watch glass is used for evaporation of
volatile liquids, for observing reactions, as
a container in weighing and as a cover
for beakers to avoid evaporation or
contamination of the liquid in the
beaker.
 A reagent bottle is used as a container
for reagents.
 A Bunsen burner is used as a source of
heat in the laboratory.
 An alcohol lamp is used as an alternate
source of heat.
 A clay triangle is used to support the
porcelain crucible for heating.
 A wing top is placed over the barrel of a
burner to spread the flame evenly.
 A wire gauze or asbestos pad is used for
protecting glass vessels from the direct
flame of the burner. It is used for indirect
heating. It supports apparatus while
heating.
 A water bath is used to heat chemical
preparation at a controlled temperature,
also for indirect heating.
 A deflagrating spoon is used for heating
small amount of samples.
 An iron clamp is used as a support for
test tubes, flasks and other apparatus
that need to be attached to the iron
stand.
 A glass funnel is used to support filter
papers and facilitate the transfer of
liquids and fine powder into narrow-neck
glass vessels to prevent spilling.
 An iron stand is used to support iron rings
and iron clamps.
 An iron ring is mounted on an iron stand
to support beakers, flasks and
evaporating dish.
 A tripod is used to support apparatus
that do not need to be attached to the
iron stand.
 A test tube holder is used to hold test
tube while heating.
 A test tube rack holds test tubes (ready
for use) in place.
 A glass rod or stirring rod is used for
stirring solutions. It also aids in pouring
liquids to prevent spilling.
 A crucible tong is used for handling hot
instruments and porcelain crucibles.
 A triple beam balance is used to weigh
materials.
 A graduated cylinder is used to measure
volume of liquids.
 A buret is a graduated glass tube that is
used for measuring definite and
accurate amount of liquid needed in
volumetric analysis.
 A dropper is used to transfer small
amount of liquid.
 A spatula is used to remove solids from
the container.
 A pipette is used to remove or transfer
small amount of liquid.
 A thermometer is used to measure
temperature.
 A barometer is used to measure the
atmospheric pressure.
 A cork borer is used for boring a hole
through a cork.
 A test tube brush is used to clean test
tubes.
 A triangular file is used to make deep
scratch or mark on a glass tubing to be
cut.
 A separatory funnel is used to separate
two immiscible liquids.
 A condenser is used in distillation.
