Best Answer

A crucible is placed in a pipestem triangle placed on an iron ring while being heated. This supports the crucible while allowing the bottom of the crucible to be directly exposed to the flame of the Bunsen burner. There is no item that is used to distribute heat from a Bunsen burner when heating the bottom of a crucible. The bottom of the crucible is intended to be exposed to the direct flame of the Bunsen burner.

What is a heating mantle and how do you use it?

A heating mantle is the best way to heat a liquid in a round bottom flask. The heating mantle can be either rigid or soft, but heats the flask by heating an electric coil which surrounds the round bottom flask. Heating mantles come in different sizes to best match the size of the found bottom flask for a snug fit around the entire bottom of the flask. They are commonly used in distillations and other heated reactions.A heating mantle if much better than a hot plate because the heating mantle makes contact with the entire bottom surface of a round bottom flask. It is also much better than a Bunsen burner for heating flammable liquids.See the Related Questions and Web Links to the left for more information.


What would you use a roaring Bunsen burner flame for?

Most things in chemistry.. Usually you would use a blue Bunsen flame (half open at the bottom) for heating almost everything. The yellow flame is only a safety flame, as you can't see a blue one all that well, and it's not used for heating because it produces soot


Where did the word Bunsen come from?

If you are referring to a Bunsen burner, used in laboratories to heat chemicals, it was named for it's inventor- Robert Bunsen. See link at bottom of page.

What is the use of florence flask in laboratory?

The Florence Flask is used for heating subtances that need to be heated evenly. The bulbed bottom allows the heat to distribute through the liquid more evenly. The Florence Flask is mostly used in distillation experiments.
