A burette stand is a laboratory support apparatus designed to hold burettes securely in a vertical position during titration and other liquid-measuring experiments. It ensures accuracy, stability, and safety while dispensing precise volumes of liquids in laboratory procedures.
Purpose of a Burette Stand
The main purpose of a burette stand is to provide firm and stable support to a burette during titration, allowing controlled and accurate delivery of liquid reagents without the risk of slipping or spillage.
How to Use a Burette Stand
Slowly release the liquid from the burette during the experiment.
Place the stand on a flat, stable laboratory bench.
Attach the burette clamp to the vertical rod.
Secure the burette tightly in the clamp.
Position a flask or beaker below the burette tip.
