Which of the following are the correct precautions while bending a glass tube?

  1. Select the tube of sufficient length to keep your hands safe from heat.

  2. While heating, the glass tube should be rotated in order to ensure uniform heating.

  3. Never bend the glass tubing by force. Doing so can break the tubing.

  4. All of these
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
D Correct answer
Explanation

We have to take following precautions while cutting a glass tube:

  • Make a single deep scratch at the desired length with one stroke of file.
  • To avoid injury, hold the glass tube with the help of a thick piece of cloth or wear protective gloves.
  • Heat the end using a Bunsen Burner. Do not heat the end for long time. It may seal the end or make it narrow.
  • Select the tube of sufficient length to keep your hands safe from heat.
  • While heating, the glass tube should be rotated in order to ensure uniform heating.
  • Never bend the glass tubing by force. Doing so can break the tubing.

What are the uses of glass/rubber tubes in the laboratory?

  1. It helps cold water to flow in and out of the condenser to allow heated water vapourise

  2. For liquid and gases in the experiment, rubber stoppers are used as plugs in the flask

  3. Rubber tubing is always connected to a condenser, helps in distillation

  4. All of these
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
D Correct answer
Explanation

Glass tubing is a long, clear tube used as a passage for liquid or gas in experiments. 
Rubber stoppers are used as plugs in flasks or test tubes. 
Rubber tubing is often connected to a condenser, which is a laboratory tool used in the process of distillation. The rubber tubing helps cool water to flow in and out of the condenser and helps the heated water vapor in the condenser return to its liquid state.
