What else can I help you with?
What is the maximum amount of liquid that a conical flask can hold?
The maximum amount of liquid a conical flask can hold is determined by its capacity, which is typically around 1 liter. However, you should avoid filling it to the brim to prevent spills and ensure accurate measurements.
How would someone know if a flask was centamanated?
If a flask is contaminated, you may notice a change in color or odor of the contents. Growth of unexpected microorganisms, cloudiness in the liquid, or particles floating in the flask could also indicate contamination. It's important to use proper sterilization techniques to prevent contamination.
What is flat bottom flask?
A flat bottom flask would be an Ehrlemeyer flask, which is used quite a lot by chemists.anf
What are the functions of Erlenmeyer flask?
Erlenmeyer flasks are commonly used in laboratories for holding, mixing, and heating liquids. They have a conical shape that allows for swirling without spilling, making them ideal for titrations and other experiments where mixing is required. Erlenmeyer flasks also have a narrow neck that can accommodate rubber stoppers or tubing for airtight reactions or distillations.
What happen if you adding water to the titrated substance in the conical flask during the process of titration?
NoUser 1Yes. By adding water to rinse, you will be changing the concentration of the thing you are titrating, and so your calculation will be off. If you have material on the walls of the flask, just gently stir the flask and let the solution in the flask wash anything off the walls.User 2I do not believe this is true. Once you add an amount of reactant into your flask adding more water will not change the number of moles of reactant that are present in the flask. The titrant will react in the mole ratio for that particular reaction so water doesn't play a role. You can rinse the flask and even use water to get part of a drop into your flask for a more accurate titration.User 3No. User 1 means to say that water in the volumetric burette or pipette will effect the concentration of titrant moles. Water in a conical flask will not effect the titre values because the same mole ratios are reacting, and your titre value is measured from the volume remaining in the volumetric burette and not the conical flask. User 2 is correct, although using water to rinse the volumetric burette's contents into the conical flask would adversely effect the results, as volumetric burettes and pipettes are designed to account for the few remaining drops in the instruments. Shaking or tapping the instruments is also a bad idea, as they can easily be broken and doing this would effect your titre values anyway.User 4It will not affect the result at all as long as you use distilled water, as just tap water obviously contains other minerals etc that will affect the results.
What would you use to pour liquid into a conical flask?
A funnel, Sherlock.
What is the maximum amount of liquid that a conical flask can hold?
The maximum amount of liquid a conical flask can hold is determined by its capacity, which is typically around 1 liter. However, you should avoid filling it to the brim to prevent spills and ensure accurate measurements.
Sam filled a 500ml conical flask with 200ml of water Then he attached a 100ml syringe full of air to the conical flask and pushed the plunger inwards What was the volume of air in the flask?
The total volume in the flask is 500ml of water + 100ml of air from the syringe, which equals 600ml. Since the 200ml of water takes up space in the conical flask, the remaining volume for air is 400ml.
What is the conical flask used for?
people that maybe had someone in there family poisoned by there drink so you would use a flask for your own sake or just personal hygene
Why was the conical flask not washed with the alkali solution it was going to contain?
The conical flask was not washed with the alkali solution it was going to contain because any leftover residue or impurities on the flask could contaminate the alkali solution, affecting the accuracy of the experiment or leading to unwanted reactions. Washing the flask with the solution beforehand would also dilute the solution and affect the concentration needed for the experiment.
What effect would it have on the value of the concentration of sodium hydroxide if the conical flask contains some distilled water before the addition of potassium hydrogenphthalate?
the conentration will be increased.
Explain whether the rinsing of conical flask with the standard sodium carbonate would lead to experimental error?
Rinsing a conical flask with the standard sodium carbonate solution could potentially introduce a systematic error if there was any residue or impurities left in the flask from previous experiments. This could impact the accuracy of the results if any of the residue or impurities interact with the solution being measured. It is best practice to ensure that the flask is thoroughly cleaned and rinsed with the appropriate solvent to avoid such errors.
What is the disadvantage of using a distilling flask whose volume is much greater than that of the liquid being distilled?
A distillation flask is a piece of laboratory equipment that holds a substance to be distilled. The advantage of using a distillation flask whose capacity is greater than volume of liquid is the loss of heat.
What are the precautions for conical flask?
Usually they are handled by gripping the neck of the flask from the side. Get in the habit of never allowing you hand to be over the opening in the neck. Sometimes the fumes coming out through the throat of the flask can be hot or corrosive and burn you.
What are some typical pieces of medical lab equipment?
Some of the typical pieces of medical lab equipment would include beakers, Erlenmeyer Flasks, Florence Flask, Volumetric Flask and Graduated Cylinders. Also you will find Hot Air Oven, Autoclave and a Compound Microscope.
Explain how can you find the density of an unknown liquid if you have all of the laboratory equipment you need?
To find the density of an unknown liquid, you would first measure the mass of a known volume of the liquid using a balance. Then, you would measure the volume of the liquid using a graduated cylinder. Finally, divide the mass by the volume to calculate the density of the unknown liquid.
An alternative procedure for determining the density of a liquid would be to pipet a sample of the liquid into a weighed flask then reweigh the flask to determine the mass of liquid transferred?
Yes, pipetting the liquid into a weighed flask and then weighing it again would give you an indication of the density of the liquid. The answer would, however, not be as accurate as when you use specialized equipment for the measurement. Depending on your application this difference might or might not be significant. If you are in doubt and a hurry it could be best to do your measurement the way you described it and state your method clearly in your report. Just remember to use as big a volume as possible (eg. a 100ml pipette), to minimse the effect of possible pipetting inaccuracies (eg. parralax error, ect.).
