Technical Terms of Chemistry(Part 5)

TechnicalTermsofChemistry(Part5)...



After the introduction about nearly all kinds of inorganic compounds, it’s time to learn some chemical equipment(the organic are too complex to introduce).

结束了几乎所有种类的无机物的介绍，是时候学习一下化学器材了（有机物太复杂了）。

The most common one is test tube. He is used for containing reactants. But he is not very friendly because if the liquid inside exceed one third of the capacity of him, he will get angry. We never know what will happen when he is in anger. And he is kind of naughty that when being heated, he sometimes spray some liquid or solid out. So, for security, never let his mouth be towards any person.

最常见的就要数试管了。他是用来盛反应物的。但是他并不是非常友好，因为如果里面的液体超出了他容积的三分之一，他就会生气。我们可不知道他生气会做出什么坏事来。而且他还有些调皮。当他被加热的时候，他有时会喷出一些液体或固体。所以为了安全，管住他的嘴（管住这个大喷子）。            

Along with the test tube are test tube rack and test tube clamp. They are all friends of test tube. But they hate their names because it sounds like they are the servants of test tube! They are of the pursuit of equality personality.

和试管一起的就是试管架和试管夹了。他们是试管的朋友。但是他们很讨厌自己的名字，因为这听起来好像他们是试管的仆人！他们追求人格平等。

The following one is beaker. Maybe some test tubes eat so much that they grow much fatter, afraid of the difficulties of losing weight, they named themselves beaker as if they are born to be like this. But it is difficult to cover up the fact that they are actually test tubes. They also willfully push the asbestos net to lie under it when being heated.

紧随其后的就是烧杯。也许是一些试管吃的太多了以至于长得太胖。害怕减肥的艰辛，他们自名曰烧杯就好像他们生下来就是这样。但还是难以掩饰他们实际上是试管的事实。加热时他们还任性地迫使石棉网垫在他们底下。

Next, iron set. No introductions this needs.

下一个，铁架台。无介绍（铁架台感到很委屈）。



Alcohol lamp is most widely used heater in laboratory. He takes pride in this. But he hates to be blew out, and is too selfish to share a flame with another alcohol lamp, or he may explode to punish your behavior. But in front of alcohol lamp cap, he can only obediently extinguish the fire himself. One more point, alcohol lamp is in a balanced diet, he always requires that the volume of the alcohol must be between one third and two thirds of the capacity of him.

酒精灯是实验室中最常用的加热器，他为此很自豪。但他讨厌被吹灭，也很自私不愿意与其他酒精灯分享火焰，否则他会用爆炸来惩罚你的行径。但是在酒精灯帽面前，他只能乖乖地自己熄灭火焰。另一点，酒精灯均衡饮食，他总是要求酒精的体积保持在他容积的三分之一到三分之二之间。

Erlenmeyer flask is a friend of the breaker. He always shows off its thin neck, but is often laughed at the uncoordinated big belly. Learning from his friend, he also make the asbestos net lie under him when being heated.

锥形瓶是烧杯的好基友。他总是炫耀他的细脖子，但却总因那个不协调的大肚子被嘲笑。向他的朋友学习，加热时他也迫使石棉网躺在他底下。

Alcohol burner is more grumpy than its brother, alcohol lamp, so it always generate more high-temperature flames than what its brother does.

酒精喷灯比他的弟弟酒精灯脾气更加暴躁，所以他总是产生比他弟弟更高温的火焰。

That’s all for today, see you next weekend.

以上是今天的全部内容。下个周末见。
