BIOLOGY
Used to magnify small specimens, such as cells or bacteria, using a combination of objective and eyepiece lenses.
COMPOUND MICROSCOPE
Measures length and distance.
RULER/METER STICK
A small, cylindrical glass tube with a rounded bottom, used for holding, mixing, or heating small amounts of liquids or solids.
TEST TUBE
Measures the acidity or alkalinity of soil or water samples.
Ph METER
A cylindrical container used for mixing, stirring, and heating liquids. It provides rough volume measurements but is not precise.
BEAKER
Measures force or weight.
SPRING SCALE
Used to transfer a precise volume of liquid from one container to another.
PIPETTE
Measures air and water temperature.
THERMOMETER
A long, graduated glass tube with a stopcock at the bottom, used to dispense precise, variable volumes of a liquid, often in titrations.
BURETTE
A versatile tool that combines the functions of an ammeter, voltmeter, and ohmmeter, used for a wide range of electrical measurements.
MULTIMETER
Used to transfer liquids or powders into a container with a small opening, preventing spillage.
FUNNEL
A small, magnifying glass used for close examination of mineral grains, rock textures, and fossils in the field or lab.
HANDLENS
A machine that spins samples at high speeds to separate components based on density. Heavier components settle at the bottom while lighter components remain on top.
CENTRIFUGE
Used to demonstrate the principles of light reflection and refraction and to form real or virtual images.
CONCAVE and CONVEX LENSES/MIRRORS
A small, heat-resistant ceramic or metal container used for heating solid substances to very high temperatures.
CRUCIBLE
A specialized microscope used to examine thin sections of rocks and minerals under polarized light. This helps identify minerals based on their optical properties.
PETROGRAPHIC MICROSCOPE
A device that uses an electric current to separate molecules, such as DNA, RNA, or proteins, based on their size and charge.
ELECTROPHORESIS CHAMBER
An instrument used to observe the light emitted by a source, revealing its unique spectral fingerprint.
SPECTROSCOPE
A stand with three legs that supports glassware over a Bunsen burner. The wire gauze provides an even surface for the flask or beaker and helps to distribute heat evenly.
TRIPOD STAND and WIRE GAUZE
A highly specialized instrument used in oceanography to measure these three key parameters simultaneously at various depths. This data helps scientists understand water masses and ocean currents.
CTD ( CONDUCTIVITY, TEMPERATURE and DEPT) SENSOR
