 SCIENCE
LABORATORY
Science Laboratory is where
scientific research,
experiment, and analyses are
conducted and performed.
Why do we need to
learn
LABORATORY
works?
  Chemistry is an experimental
science.

 Thus, students of chemistry must

do experiments in the laboratory
to more fully understand that the
theories they study in lectures and
their textbooks are developed
from the critical evaluation of
experimental data.
 The laboratory can also aid the
student in the study of science by
clearly illustrating the principles
and concepts involved.

 Finally, laboratory
experimentation allows students
the opportunity to develop
techniques and other manipulative
skills that students of science must
master.
 Working in the laboratory is part of
being a scientist.
 This is also one of the most
exciting parts of being a science
student!
 However, to work safely in the lab,
it is important to learn about the
equipment you will be handling.
  Different types of lab
equipment are designed for
different purposes.

 Learning to select the correct

piece of equipment for your
experiment is part of working
in a laboratory.
 Laboratory equipment
 Refers to the many devices of
equipment used in a laboratory to
carry out specific tasks.
 These tools are meant for use by
scientists, students, professors, and
medical professionals.
 Some scientific lab equipment is
used for weighing materials,
mixing and creating solutions, and
cleaning containers.
 List down all the
apparatus you learned
from the video.
 Remember!

Safety is the most important

aspect of working in the lab.
Always follow your
teacher’s instructions when
it comes to selecting, using,
and caring for laboratory
equipment.
 Activity # 1

What’s inside your laboratory?

Procedure:
1. List down all the laboratory
tools and apparatus found in
the school’s laboratory.
2. Draw and write the function of
each laboratory apparatus.
Thank you!
Be safe in the laboratory!
