This document provides instructions for making scientific drawings of laboratory apparatus. It includes diagrams of common pieces of equipment like beakers, test tubes, Bunsen burners, and clamps. Students are asked to use these diagrams to draw setups involving combinations of the illustrated apparatus, such as a beaker of water on a tripod being heated by a Bunsen burner. The goal is to practice efficiently depicting laboratory experiments through technical drawings.

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.
Test tube
Beaker
Clamp & stand
Conical flask
Funnel
Round and flat
bottom flask
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?
