7th Grade Science Laboratory Equipment SHJH

• Laboratory Equipment will be defined and
  illustrated

2
Beaker

• Beaker A wide cylindrical vessel with a pouring
  lip, used as a lab container and mixing jar. May
  come in 3 sizes small, medium, and large with
  markings on the sides.

3
Flask

• A wide base glass container with a narrow neck,
  used for holding or carrying liquids.

4
Test Tube

• Test Tube A clear cylindrical, glass tube open
  at one end and rounded at the other. Used in
  laboratory use and for experimentation.

5
Test Tube Holder

• Test Tube Holder a plastic holder to place test
  tubes in before, during and after labs.

6
Dropper

• Dropper A glass or plastic tube with a hollow
  rubber bulb at one end and a small opening at the
  other, drawing in a liquid and expelling it in
  drops.

7
Pipette

• Pipette A slender, graduated plastic tube used
  for measuring and transferring quantities of
  liquid from 1 container to another.

8
Glass Stirring Rods

• Glass Stirring Rods A glass rod using for
  stirring liquids in the lab. Often referred to
  as a swizzle stick.

9
Hot Hands

• Hot Hands A plastic cupped shaped mitt to fit on
  one hand to handle hot containers.

10
Lab Apron

• Lab Apron A plastic apron that fits over the
  students head and ties in the back. This will
  protect the student from potential spills or
  splashes.

11
Safety Goggles

• Safety Goggles Plastic eye-wear in the form of
  goggles or glasses that will protect the
  students eyes during labs.

12
Magnifying Lens

• Magnifying Lens A hand magnifying lens to

13
Triple Beam Balance

• Triple Beam Balance A measuring instrument
  consisting of 3 beams to measure mass. To begin,
  you must set the calibration to 0 and then it
  is balanced when the line at the right lines up
  with the main marking.

14
Microscope

• Microscope An optical instrument having a
  magnifying lens or a combination of lenses for
  inspecting objects too small to be seen by the

  and a rubber base that is used to measure
  liquids.

16
Hot Plate

• Used to heat liquids in beakers and flasks. Uses
  electricity instead of gas.

17
Science Safety

• According to Aesops Tale, The Tortoise and the
  Hare, remember who took his time and ended up
  winning the race. That is what I would like you
  to do, be careful, work hard and you will be
  successful!
