What is a test tube and rack used for?
A test tube is used for many things. It is used to perform experiments as well as measure out certain mL of fluids. The rack itself is used for holding the test tubes if they are hot, need to stay in one place for a long time, or just so you don't have to hold the tube. Hope this helps!
What is used for holding a test tube in place when the tube is hot or should not be touched?
You need a test tube holder.
What is the difference between a test tube holder and a test tube rack?
No. A ringstand is a stand with a base with a large pole sticking out of it. that you can attach rings to. A wire mesh is usually placed on the ring for setting a beaker to be heated. A test tube clamp can be attached to the ring stand to hold a test tube, for say, heating it in a hot water bath.
What is a test tube holder used for in a laboratory?
Assuming you're talking about a wooden or metal 'rack' which is capable of holding a few test-tubes. They are simply a safe way to allow test tubes to stand upright without falling over. A hot test tube, or one holding corrosive chemicals - is safer supported by a rack - than being held in someone's hand !
What do you clean a test tube with?
A thin, long brush called a 'test-tube brush'.
Can you put a wooden test tube rack in hot water?
yes

What are the precautions of test tube holder?
If you are heating a test tube, point it away from yourself and others. If you need to place a test tube into a hot water bath, or take it out of a hot water bath, you need to use a test tube holder and not your unprotected fingers. Do not leave the test tube holder attached to the test tube while it is heating, as this will also heat up the test tube holder. If a test tube breaks, tell your teacher, and clean it up with a broom and dust pan. Don't pick the glass up with your fingers.
Why are test tube holders made out of wood instead of metal?
Actually, test tube holders are made out of a variety of materials, including wood, metal, and plastic. If all of the test tube holders in your school or lab happen to be made out of wood, it's likely because wood ones were the cheapest option available. Also, just one more benefit is that if considering an exothermic reaction (producing heat) in the test tube, the wood rack would not become hot, unlike a metal one
Is a test tube that feels cold to touch after two substances have been mixed is exothermic?
NO. If the test tube becomes hot, then the reaction taking place in the test tube is EXOTHERMIC. The reaction is releasing heat to the surroundings, and the test tube is part of the surroundings.
