A Temperature-Sensing Magnetic Stir Bar

Magnetic stirrers are a standard feature in many science labs, they save manual stirring and also ensure that this is undertaken at a consistent speed.

This project from hackaday takes the tech one step further, by creating a custom stir bar, these hackers have added sensors, so data such as temperature can be monitored during experiments.

Sounds really cool, there is a video here explaining how everything works.

New chemistry order arrived on Wednesday, this equipment will allow for further useful chemistry both at home and at the STEM group meeting.

Volumetric flask is used to make accurate measurements when making up specific volumes of liquids or solutions.

A burette can be used for Titration. An solution of known concentration is put in to the burette, an solution of unknown concentration is can be put in the flask. The two can be mixed by adding a very small amount at a time, for example 0.5ml or 1ml.
