14
Classifying Chemicals
reagent grade, primary-standard grade, and special-purpose reagent chemicals
15
Rules for Handling Reagents and Solutions
1. the best grade, smallest bottle
2. never return any excess reagent to a bottle
3. never insert spatulas, spoons, or knives into a bottle
16
Bumping
sudden, often violent boiling that tends to spatter solution out of its container
17
Wet-ashing
oxidation of the organic constituents of a sample with oxidizing reagents such as HNO3, H2SO4, H2O2, or aqueous Br2, or a combination

Buoyancy error
weighing error that develops when the object being weighed has a significantly different density than the weights
22
Desiccator
device for drying substances or objects
23
Decantation
pouring a liquid gently so as to not distrub a solid in the bottom of the container
24
Creeping
a solid moves up the side of a wetted container or filter paper
25
Apparatus for precisely measuring volume
pipet, buret, and volumetric flask
