This question is incomplete, the complete question is;
Describe how to use a transfer pipet to deliver 10.00 mL of liquid by placing the following steps in the correct order;
- Replace the bulb with your index finger and wipe excess liquid off the outside of the pipette.
- Place the tip of the pipette against the side of the beaker and drain the liquid from the pipette until the bottom of the meniscus reaches the calibration mark.
- Transfer the pipette to the receiving vessel.
- Drain the pipette by gravity while holding the tip against the side of the receiving vessel.
- Use a rubber bulb to suck liquid up past the 10.00 ml calibration mark.
- Suck up a third volume of liquid past the 10.00 ml calibration mark.
- Discard the first two pipette volumes of the liquid to rinse the pipette.
Answer:
- Use a rubber bulb to suck liquid up past the 10.00 ml calibration mark.
- Discard the first two pipette volumes of the liquid to rinse the pipette.
- Suck up a third volume of liquid past the 10.00 ml calibration mark.
- Replace the bulb with your index finger and wipe excess liquid off the outside of the pipette.
- Place the tip of the pipette against the side of the beaker and drain the liquid from the pipette until the bottom of the meniscus reaches the calibration mark.
- Transfer the pipette to the receiving vessel.
- Drain the pipette by gravity while holding the tip against the side of the receiving vessel.
Explanation:
First of all, We use a suction device to suck up liquid into pipet. Then we will fill the pipet up to the 10 mL marks and will discard the initial two volumes of liquid and will take a final third volume. We will replace the bulb with index finger and will drain it by placing the tip of pipet at the wall of beaker and drain the liquid.
Arranged in the following steps correctly;
- Use a rubber bulb to suck liquid up past the 10.00 ml calibration mark.
- Discard the first two pipette volumes of the liquid to rinse the pipette.
- Suck up a third volume of liquid past the 10.00 ml calibration mark.
- Replace the bulb with your index finger and wipe excess liquid off the outside of the pipette.
- Place the tip of the pipette against the side of the beaker and drain the liquid from the pipette until the bottom of the meniscus reaches the calibration mark.
- Transfer the pipette to the receiving vessel.
- Drain the pipette by gravity while holding the tip against the side of the receiving vessel.
