Boiling Point Lab
Boiling Point Lab
Introduction:
The purpose of this lab is to learn about the calibration of a thermometer. In addition, we also investigated the boiling point of an unknown liquid to determine its identity.
Chemical Responsibility:
1. Make sure to use glycerine (lubricant) and a towel to safely insert the thermometer into the rubber stopper.
2. Carefully operate the Bunsen burner and make sure to use rubber gloves when handling the boiling water of beaker
3. Always wear goggles at all times and avoid contact with the unknown liquids
4. After the lab is done, pour the unknown liquid into a container labeled “Waster Experiment 1 Boiling Point Unkowns” and throw away any broken glass in the proper broken glass container
