Best Answer

A syringe is an injection. It is a small tube with a measuring cylinder and a needle to eject the liquid into the body.

To use it, you must pour the liquid into the cylinder and slightly tap it, then you push the tab down so the liquid is released from the needle and into the body.

Syringes are often used for medicinal purposes however many food manufacturers use it to inject an ingredient into their product, for example jam inside a doughnut would be injected with a syringe.

What is a gas syringe and how is it used?

A gas syringe is basically a device that fills up with a gas that is produced and gives a volume for that gas. Gas from a reaction is forced into the syringe due to pressure and the syringe plunger is forced out (just like how you suck up a liquid with a normal syringe). It can be used to detect the volume of gas produced in a chemical reaction for instance.See the Web Links to the left for more information.
