The chemistry of glass has been finely tuned since those early experiments, and the process has been scaled up to incredible proportions, enough to make glass production one of the largest ...

A vacuum tube is just that: a glass tube surrounding a vacuum (an area from which all gases have been removed). What makes it interesting is that when electrical contacts are put on the ends ...

State and explain which type of glass would be best to make a boiling tube, for use in a school chemistry laboratory. Borosilicate glass would be best because it has a higher melting point than ...

Both cotton swabs are simultaneously inserted into opposite ends of a long glass Graham’s Law apparatus and placed on an overhead projector. A white ring of solid ammonium chloride forms where the two ...
