  • Beakers are cylindrical in shape and has a flat button; holds solids or liquids that will not release gases when reacted or are unlikely to splatter if stirred or heated
  • Beaker
  • Beaker tongs are used to move beakers containing hot liquids
  • Beaker tongs
  • Erlenmeyer flask is also known as a conical flask or titration and has an opening that can be closed by a stopper; hold solids or liquids that may release gases during a reaction or that are likely to splatter if stirred or heated.
  • Erlenmeyer flask- it has tapered body
  • Erlenmeyer flask
  • Florence Flask- Rarely used in first-year chemistry, it is used for the mixing of chemicals; Narrow neck prevents splash exposure.
