Common Laboratory Apparatus

1. OBJECTIVES:
1.1 To familiarize with the different laboratory apparatuses and equipment
1.2 To identify the names and functions of the different laboratory apparatuses and equipment

2. INTENDED LEARNING OUTCOMES (ILOs):

The students shall be able to:
2.1 Learn the different laboratory apparatuses and equipment, as well as its functions.
3. DISCUSSION:
Apparatuses and equipment are often encountered in laboratory works. It is important to know their
names and functions in order to be familiarized with them. Acquiring knowledge on the proper use of
each apparatus makes a young scientist become more efficient in his job. It makes work easier, faster,
and systematic, thus increasing his daily productivity
4. MATERIALS:

1 Test tube 1 Stirring Rod 1 Wire Gauze

1 Pipette 1 Watch Glass 1 Beam Balance
1 Burette 1 Evaporating Dish 1 Iron Clamp

1 Triangular File 1 Thermometer 1 Florence Flask
1 Separatory Funnel 1 Burette Clamp 1 Funnel
1 Test Tube Holder 1 150 mL beaker 1 Test Tube Brush

5. PROCEDURE:
1. Request for the above apparatuses from the laboratory technician
2. Study each apparatus, draw and label if necessary
3. Describe the function of each apparatus and its parts
6. DATA AND RESULTS:

APPARATUS/EQUIPMENT DRAWING FUNCTIONS

7. QUESTIONS:
7.1. What are the uses of the equipment/apparatus in scientific investigation?

7.2. Why do we need to take care of our Laboratory Apparatus?

7.3. What are the ethical values that can be derived from this activity?
