Best Answer

The flask and the beaker are held up by a ring support with a wire gauze. The test tube is held with a Burette clamp. Sometimes a triangle can be used for all three but it has to be small enough to hold the test tube and large enough so the others will not to tip over.

What is the function of ring clamp?

Ring clamps are usually thick metal rods that are bent into a circle at one end and have a screwing attachment on the other end in order to connect to ring stands. These are used to hold pieces of glassware above the table surface for reactions. They are used often for seperatory funnels and for holding a solution above a heat source..


What is an Erlenmeyer flask used for in chemistry?

Physical DescriptionAn Erlenmeyer Flask (named after Emil Erlennmeyer) is a common piece of laboratory glassware since 1861. It is also known as as a conical flask or E-flask. It has a conical body, flat base and a narrow cylindrical neck. The flask is usually marked to indicate the approximate volume of their contents.The flask is chosen to replace a beaker if there is a need to stopper the contents. The narrow neck is sized to accept standard rubber stoppers or corks.The conical shape and narrow neck facilitates stirring by swirling.The small neck reduces evaporative losses. The neck may be fitted with side tubes to allow the extraction of produced gasesThe flat bottom improves stability on lab benches. A Florence flask has a similar overall use but is more unstable because the body is round and the base is smaller.UsesErlenmeyer flasks are used for:pH titrationsthe preparation of mixtures which must be mixed without stirringDisadvantages:The Erlenmeyer is often stirred with a glass rod even though swirling is more often suggested. Inexperience students often do this while holding the flask at near eye level. A tap with the rod will knock the bottom off dumping the (usually nasty poisonous, hot and corrosive) contents all over the students legs.Erlenmeyer flasks are used to measure, mix, and store liquids.

What is the use of Erlenmeyer flask in the laboratory?

I can honestly say I've never heard of an "Erlenmeyer flask stand". 100% of the time I've ever seen an Erlenmeyer flask on a "stand" it was on a ring stand, which is used for ... among other things ... supporting an Erlenmeyer flask. It's also often attached to the stand by a clamp of some sort for additional stability.
