Florence FlaskFlorence FlaskFlorence FlaskFlorence Flask
The Florence Flask is used for heating substances that need to be heated evenly The to be heated evenly. The bulbed bottom allows the heat to distribute through the liquid more evenly liquid more evenly.
The Florence Flask is mostly used in distillation experiments.
Round Bottom FlaskRound Bottom Flask
The round bottom flask is used as:
boiling flaskreaction flask distilling flask distilling flask collection flask
VialsVials
Vials are flat-bottomed, stoppered glass containers stoppered glass containers.
They come in many sizes d h d d and shapes and are used
to hold small amounts of liquids or solids.
Vacuum FlaskVacuum Flask(Side(Side--Arm Flask or Filtering Flask)Arm Flask or Filtering Flask)
Th fl k l k lik The vacuum flask looks like an Erlenmeyer flask with a short arm coming out of git. The "arm" is designed to connect the flask to a vacuum source vacuum source.
Note the heavy the walls f thi fl k th of this flask - they are
designed to withstand reduced pressure without pimploding.
Buchner FunnelBuchner FunnelBuchner FunnelBuchner FunnelThe Buchner funnel is a white porcelain funnel A grey or porcelain funnel. A grey or black adaptor or a stopper with a hole in it is required to
fl k connect it to a vacuum flask.
The Buchner is used exclusively yfor vacuum filtrations. The adaptor forms a snug seal so that when reduced pressure is that when reduced pressure is applied to the vacuum flask, liquid poured into the Buchner is
k d i h fl k i klsucked into the flask quickly.
SeparatorySeparatory FunnelFunnelSeparatorySeparatory FunnelFunnelThe separatory funnel is used primarily in extraction used primarily in extraction procedures. The sloping sides are designed to make d h lit easy to distinguish layers.

The condenser is used in both reflux and distillation procedures to cool and condense vapors.
YY--AdaptorAdaptorTh Y d t i d i The Y-adaptor is used in a distillation set-up:

The Claisen adaptor is a multi-purpose item of standard taper glassware.
It is used in situations It is used in situations which require more than one outlet from a round bottom flask bottom flask.
Vacuum AdaptorVacuum AdaptorVacuum AdaptorVacuum Adaptor
The vacuum adaptor is used The vacuum adaptor is used in a distillation set-up:
it connects to the lower end of the condensor and serves to direct the distilled liquid to direct the distilled liquid into the receiving flask
A "bent adaptor" would serve the same purpose in a simple or fractional distillation. A bent adaptor does not have the connection to a vacuum source, o s not ha th conn ct on to a acuum sourc , which is on the right hand side in the above photo.
