Why are Erlenmeyer flasks conical in shape?
The conical shape of Erlenmeyer flasks allows for efficient mixing and swirling of liquids. It provides better gas exchange and reduces the risk of spills or splashes during stirring.
Can Erlenmeyer flasks be used for heating liquids?
Yes, Erlenmeyer flasks are suitable for heating liquids. However, it is important to ensure that the flasks are placed on a compatible heating source and heated gradually to prevent sudden temperature changes and possible breakage.
What is the advantage of using borosilicate glass for Erlenmeyer flasks?
Borosilicate glass offers excellent resistance to thermal shock, making it ideal for heating and cooling applications. It also has a low coefficient of expansion, ensuring accurate volume measurements even with temperature variations.
