What is a boiling flask used for in science?

A boiling flask, as its name implies is typically used for boiling solutions of various types. One common use is to generate the steam that will be passed through a water cooled condenser for distillation.


What are the Sources of error in distillation?

boiling chips are not added to the distillation flask. the thermometer bulb is placed in the boiling liquid. the water to the water-jacketed condenser is not turned on.


Can adding water to salt be reversible?

Yes. A procedure known as distillation would need to be done, i.e., take the solution of water and salt and place in a conical flask attached to a Liebig's Condenser and at the end of the condenser, a beaker. The condenser must be circulated with cold water from below and the hot water removed from top. Heat the solution upto 100 C, and the water will collect in the beaker as 'distillate' while the salt will stick to the sides of the flask.

Distillation set up?

A distillation set up involves a boiling flask over a Bunson burner. This is connected to a distillation tube the flows into a beaker.


How do you trap condensed water from salt water?

Using a Dean stark collection arm with an attached condenser and boiling the water off. You could also use a distillation head with an angled condenser (angled down from the top of the salt water containing flask) and collection flask at the lower end of the condesner.


What is the difference between a beaker and a flask?

The shape of the opening. A Beaker has a wide opening, the curved sides of the beaker do not converge. A flask has a narrow opening, the curved sides form a narrow neck, that can be bunged.

How can tetrachloroethylene be recycled by distillation?

Of course! (Says this lay person) By using another liquid that has a higher boiling point! Fractional Distillation with a condenser, round bottom flask, and a fume hood. Chemdawg!


Can a beaker be used in a titration instead of an erlenmeyer flask?

Yes.


Can a beaker be used instead of conical flask in titration?

no because the liquid may spill out and it is difficult to mix the contents in beaker by shaking the beaker
