GLASSWARE APPARATUS AND ITS USES

Chemistry glassware is an essential form of equipment that all the labs require. Glassware apparatus are generally used for laboratory purposes. It offers a wide range of containment and transport functions for solutions and other liquid samples used in laboratories.
