Can you give a brief description of each of six types of funnel?
Glass or plastic standard funnels: conical with a long stem.Tap funnels for controlling the addition of liquids.Solid funnels: with a short stem to deliver powders without clogging.Sintered glass funnels used in quantitative analysis.Micro funnels for small scale work.Separating funnels which have a tap and a fitted stopper.
What is a glass stopcock?
it is a valve made of glass often used in laboratory glasswares such as separatory funnels, burets, etc.
What is the use of a laboratory funnel?
Glass funnels are tubes with a wide opening and a narrower end, generally used in laboratory environments. The narrow bottoms of funnels allow liquids to be added slowly to chemical mixtures. Some funnels are used with filter paper to filter fine particles from a liquid. Funnels for laboratory use usually use glass instead of metal or plastic because it does not react with chemicals. Solvents can degrade plastic or metal funnels.
What is the difference between Lucite Resin and plastic?
Lucite is a material that has both properties of plastic and glass and mirrors the clarity of glass. It is heavier in “feel” as compared to traditional plastics and is of the highest quality.
What is a glass funnel?
Glass funnels are used to separate solids from liquids by filtration; also they are used to pour liquids or fine powders.See many images at this link.

What is the difference between glass and plastic?
Glass is made of sand, when sand is heated it will melt to glass. Plastic can be made of oil or synthetic materials.

Which is more better to use a glass thermometer or a plastic thermometer?
There is no difference in the effectiveness of glass or plastic. Glass is more fragile for breaking but easier to keep clean, plastic is safer for not breaking, and harder to keep clean longer. It is a personal choice.

What is the difference between auto glass and regular glass?
The difference between auto glass and regular glass is that auto glass has a thin layer of flexible clear plastic placed between two (or more) layers of glass. The film holds the glass in place when it breaks and will lessen the injuries from broken glass.

What is the difference between Hirsch funnel and Buchner funnel?
Hirsch funnels are essentially smaller buchner funnels and meant for filtering smaller amounts.

Which is smoother- plastic or glass?
Glass
What is the difference between fiberglass and lexan?
Lexan is a polycarbonate plastic. Fiberglass is exactly that, fibers of glass bound together with a resin.
