What is the most accurate type of glassware for measuring and collecting?
BONUS: What are two important safety features?
Volumetric pipette and a volumetric flask
Volumetric pipette has a bulb attachment which needs to be cleaned thoroughly while volumetric flasks have round glass stoppers for inverting, which need to be vented frequently to prevent explosions.

Stop what you are doing, notify your TA, dispose of whatever is left in your hands in the BG container or HW then the BG container depending on the solution.
BONUS: What is a hazardous solution?
What is the right thing to do when something breaks?
Hazardous waste is defined as a substance that poses a hazard to human health or the environment when improperly managed. Toxic, Ignitable, Reactive, and Corrosive

1/lamba = R [(1/ni^2) - (1/nf^2)]
What is Rydberg's equation?
This tells us the change in energy but in this form, it tells us the potential wavelength.
R is a constant of 1.0977*10^7 * m^-1
ni is the ground state or low state. For our experiment, it was 2 to be within the visible spectrum.

Make sure the tube is the right size and capped, make sure it is balanced, close and lock the lid, make sure it does not open, turn past a minimum time, and do not open until the vibration has stopped
BONUS: How should I balance?
My centrifuge is not working, what should I do?
Balance by placing a tube with the same amount of solution on the other side of your sample

These are the similarities and differences between Column Chromotography and HPLC.
What is Column chromotography can be made by hand and has no additional force added to it except for gravity. As the pigment separates, the user adjust and changes the mobile phase, which increases in polarity. High Pressure Liquid Chromatography which uses instrumentation and the principles of column chromatography to separate substances in a mixture. The solution is less polar than the solvent.

Wavelengths of pigments are found by this and this is important because...
What is UV-VIS analysis and this is important because often times the human eye cannot tell the difference between different colors, like different shades of green. But, each different color can be a different pigment or each pigment can have excited regions in more than one energy level.

Glassware sucks because... (10 reasons)
It is easy to break, can often times be expensive to replace, be sharp and dangerous when broken, can be hard to see, can be hard to tell when hot or cold, can become slippery easily, can cause capillary cativity, have a meniscus, and can still stain.
