8260-Gas Test Burettes

Manufactured in borosilicate glass with black enamel markings.

Here are common uses of gas test burettes in laboratory applications:

1. Gas Volume Measurement:
   • Applications: Gas test burettes are used to measure the volume of gases produced or consumed in chemical reactions. This is essential for stoichiometric calculations and understanding reaction kinetics.
2. Gas Collection:
   • Applications: Gas burettes are employed to collect and measure gases evolved during chemical reactions, such as the collection of oxygen or carbon dioxide in experiments.
3. Gas Evolution Experiments:
   • Applications: Gas burettes are used in experiments where the rate of gas evolution needs to be measured or controlled, such as in reactions involving the release of gases.
4. Determination of Gaseous Reactants:
   • Applications: Gas test burettes can be used to determine the quantity of gaseous reactants consumed in a reaction, providing insights into the reaction stoichiometry.
5. Gas Absorption Studies:
   • Applications: Gas burettes are employed in experiments studying the absorption of gases by liquids, such as the absorption of carbon dioxide in a solution.
6. Chemical Kinetics Studies:
   • Applications: Gas burettes are valuable tools for studying the kinetics of reactions involving gas evolution, helping researchers understand the rate at which reactions proceed.
7. Hydrogen Gas Production:
   • Applications: Gas test burettes are used to collect and measure hydrogen gas produced in various chemical reactions, including metal-acid reactions.
8. Gas Composition Analysis:
   • Applications: Gas burettes can be used in conjunction with gas chromatography or other analytical techniques to analyze the composition of gases in a mixture.
9. Gas Density Determination:
   • Applications: By measuring the volume of a known quantity of gas at a specified temperature and pressure, gas burettes can be used to determine the density of the gas.
10. Demonstrations and Educational Purposes:
    • Applications: Gas test burettes are commonly used in educational laboratories to demonstrate principles of gas behavior, gas laws, and stoichiometry.
11. Environmental Monitoring:
    • Applications: In environmental science and monitoring, gas burettes can be used to collect and measure gases related to air quality or emissions from certain processes.
12. Calibration of Gas Analyzers:
    • Applications: Gas burettes are used in the calibration of gas analyzers or gas sensors to ensure accurate readings by providing known gas volumes.
13. Pressure-Volume Work Calculations:
    • Applications: Gas burettes can be used in experiments where pressure-volume work calculations are necessary, providing a controlled environment for gas expansion or compression.
