1. Slowly pour some coloured solution from a


reagent bottle into a test tube until it is about
one-third full.
Tip
In case you pour excess test tube
solution into the test
tube, do not pour it back
into the reagent bottle.
This avoids any reagent bottle
impurities contaminating
the solution in the
reagent bottle.

History of Bunsen burner


The Bunsen burner was invented in
1855 by a German scientist named
Robert Bunsen (1811 – 1899). It
was used for heating in the
laboratory. Later, the design was
modified into the gas stove that
we use for cooking in the kitchen.
