What Is a Gas Jar Used For?

Gas jars collect the gases students prepare in chemistry, such as oxygen, hydrogen and carbon dioxide, either over water in a trough or by upward or downward displacement of air. Once filled and covered, the jar is used for identification tests and combustion demonstrations, for example burning sulphur or charcoal on a deflagrating spoon inside the jar. Two jars placed mouth to mouth also make a simple diffusion demonstration.

As borosilicate glassware from India, the jar tolerates the heat of combustion demonstrations, and its heavy foot keeps it steady on the bench. Put a layer of sand or water in the bottom before any combustion demonstration, never heat the jar directly over a flame, and let it cool before washing.

What to Specify When Ordering

Frequently Asked Questions

What are the dimensions of the Gas Jar, Glass?
