Uses of Glass Trough
- Chemical Reactions:
Ideal for carrying out reactions that require visual observation, such as precipitation reactions or those involving color changes.
- Density Experiments:
Used to demonstrate the principles of density and buoyancy by floating different objects or liquids within the trough.
- Optics:
Employed in experiments involving light refraction and reflection, where a light source passes through liquids in the trough.
- Displacement:
Useful in measuring the displacement of water when objects are submerged, which helps in determining volume and density.
- Gas Collection:
Often used in the collection of gases over water in experiments
