Determining the mass of a hot crucible and lid is inadvisable because heating can cause volatile substances to escape or react, leading to an inaccurate measurement. Moreover, handling hot objects increases the risk of burns or accidents. It is recommended to allow the crucible to cool to room temperature before measuring its mass.
I'm assuming you mean a crucible and lid (the little white things you place in ovens or on the top of Bunsen burners)? If you do, then a crucible and a lid is a way to get an anhydrized solid (a solid which may have H2O mixed in amongst the pure solid) and turn it into pure product by evaporating away all of the water in the solid.
Lifting the lid at intervals during the heating process allows steam to escape, preventing pressure buildup that could cause the pot to boil over or the contents to splatter. It also helps regulate the temperature and prevent the food from overcooking.
A kettle is a metal pot with a lid, handle, and spout specifically designed for heating water. It is commonly used for boiling water for making tea, coffee, or other hot beverages. The handle and spout make it easy to pour the hot water safely.
The apparatus used in Linds method is a crucible and lid, which are used to heat a sample to high temperatures in order to determine the moisture and volatile content.
it is critical to set the lid just off the lip of the crucible to allow the evolved water molecules to escape on heating.
A crucible is a container used for heating substances to high temperatures in laboratory settings. A lid is a cover that can be placed on top of the crucible to prevent the escape of substances during heating and to protect the contents from contamination. Together, they are used for controlled heating and chemical reactions in experiments.
Putting aside the crucible lid at the beginning and during the heating process allows for any moisture or impurities to evaporate from the sample. It also prevents pressure buildup inside the crucible, which could cause the lid to pop off and disrupt the experiment. Additionally, it helps to ensure proper ventilation during the heating process.
A small porcelain container with a small lid. Used for heating a substance with controlled amounts of gas from the atmosphere
The item you are referring to is a crucible. It is typically made of porcelain or other heat-resistant materials and is used in laboratories for heating solid materials to high temperatures. The lid helps to contain and protect the materials inside during heating.
The purpose is to avoid absorption of water vapors, CO2, H2S, dust, etc.

why Covering the crucible with its lid as soon as the magnesium starts burning
Oil from the fingers can contamine the surface of the crucible and lid
put the solid substance into a test tube and then heat it on a wiregauze , alittle bit far from it...thx...with best regards.. crucible and lid is used for heating small amounts of solids

So you dont burn your self
