An alcohol lamp is a small jar containing a cotton wick that draws alcohol fuel by capillary action to produce a flame with a temperature of 500-900 degrees Fahrenheit, used for low heat applications like woodworking or science projects. Common laboratory equipment includes beakers for holding liquids, graduated cylinders for precise volume measurement, stirring rods for mixing, Erlenmeyer flasks with conical bodies, evaporating dishes for solvent evaporation, distilling flasks for liquid separation by boiling point, funnels, watch glasses, pestles and mortars for grinding, magnets, tripods for glassware support, thermometers for temperature measurement, test tube racks, and Slinkies, a toy spring.
