Flasks
| Flasks |
| Round bottomed flasks (1, 2, and 3) are generally used for reactions carried out under reflux. Twin necked flasks and three necked flasks allow the fitting of other jointed glassware such as dropping funnels and stirrers. Pear shaped flasks (4 and 5) are the best choice for distillations, their shape allowing more of the product to be distilled. The twin necked flask (5) can be used to add a reagent whilst the product is being removed by distillation. |
