The document discusses drawing scientific apparatus and diagrams. It provides symbols for common laboratory equipment like beakers, Bunsen burners, clamps stands and more. It instructs the reader to use the symbols to draw diagrams of three setups: 1) a beaker half-filled with water on a tripod being heated by a Bunsen burner, 2) an irregular object in a displacement can with a beaker to collect water, and 3) a conical flask half-filled with water on a clamp stand with a thermometer to measure temperature.

1. MAKING SCIENTIFIC
DRAWINGS

2. Drawing Apparatus
When you perform an investigation and then, afterwards, write
down what happened; you may need to draw how the apparatus
was arranged.
To save time in science, there are special ways to draw the
apparatus. Can you predict what the diagrams will look like for
the apparatus below?

Using the drawings above draw:
1. A beaker, ½ filled with water, on a tripod, being heated by a bunsen burner. You will need
two other pieces of apparatus not shown above.
2. An irregular object in a eureka (displacement) can, with a beaker at the spout to collect the
water.
3. A conical flask, ½ filled with water, being supported on a clamp stand, with a thermometer
inside to measure the temperature. You will need two other pieces of apparatus not shown
above.
