A stirring rod, also known as a glass rod, is a slender, cylindrical piece of solid glass used for mixing chemicals and liquids in laboratory settings. Its smooth, inert surface makes it ideal for stirring solutions without reacting with the substances. The rod is typically about 20–30 cm in length, providing enough reach to mix in beakers, flasks, or other containers. Due to its heat-resistant properties, it can also be used to stir hot liquids without breaking or melting.
Description
Uses
- Stirring solutions: Glass rods are primarily used to stir mixtures or solutions, ensuring even distribution of solutes.
- Decanting liquids: When pouring liquids from one container to another, the glass rod helps guide the liquid along its surface to prevent splashing.
- Spreading liquids: In microbiology labs, glass rods (specifically bent into a “hockey stick” shape) are used to spread cultures on agar plates.
- Inducing crystallization: A glass rod can be used to scratch the inside of a container, inducing crystallization in supersaturated solutions.
- Testing for acidity: Glass rods can be used to transfer small drops of liquid onto pH indicator papers for acidity testing.

Barometer tubes
A barometer tube is a slender, sealed, and typically transparent tube used in barometers to measure atmospheric pressure. It is usually filled with a liquid, often mercury, but sometimes water or another fluid, which rises or falls within the tube in response to changes in atmospheric pressure. The height of the liquid column in the tube serves as an indicator of the current atmospheric pressure, with higher pressure causing the liquid to fall and lower pressure causing it to rise. This measurement helps in predicting weather changes and understanding atmospheric conditions.
Bernoulli Tube Apparatus
The Bernoulli tube apparatus, also known as a Venturi tube apparatus, is a scientific device used to demonstrate the principles of fluid dynamics, particularly the Bernoulli's principle. It consists of a specially shaped tube with a constricted region, often referred to as a Venturi section. When fluid (liquid or gas) flows through the tube, the constricted section leads to changes in pressure and velocity according to Bernoulli's principle, which states that as the velocity of a fluid increases, its pressure decreases and vice versa. This apparatus is commonly used in educational settings to visually illustrate how the flow of a fluid can affect its pressure, helping to explain various phenomena like lift in aircraft wings, fluid flow through pipes, and more.
Blotting paper
Blotting paper is a highly absorbent and thin sheet of paper, typically made from materials like cotton, linen, or other plant fibers. It is designed to quickly absorb excess liquids, such as ink, oil, or moisture, from various surfaces without smudging or smearing the substances. Blotting paper is commonly used to remove excess ink from a freshly written page, absorb oil from the skin without disturbing makeup, or dry wet items. It is often found in office settings, art studios, and cosmetic applications due to its efficient absorption properties.
blow pipes
A blowpipe apparatus is a scientific instrument used in analytical chemistry and mineralogy for conducting various tests, particularly flame tests and microchemical reactions. It typically consists of a small tube or pipette through which a controlled stream of air or oxygen is blown onto a sample being heated. This stream of air or oxygen enhances the combustion of the sample, allowing the observation of characteristic colors emitted by different elements when they are vaporized and excited by the heat. The blowpipe apparatus is often used to identify and differentiate between different elements and compounds based on their unique emission spectra and reactions.
