3.  What is this a picture of? They are used to hold, mix and heat liquids/chemicals.

Explanation

The correct answer is "Test tubes" because test tubes are commonly used in laboratories to hold, mix, and heat liquids or chemicals. They are narrow, cylindrical glass tubes with a rounded bottom, designed to withstand high temperatures and facilitate easy mixing and observation of reactions. Flask and hot plate are incorrect options as flasks are used for holding and storing liquids, while a hot plate is a heating device commonly used in laboratories.

4.  This object is used to hold and measure liquids.

Explanation

A flask is a container that is specifically designed to hold and measure liquids. It is commonly used in laboratories for various experiments and chemical reactions. The shape of a flask allows for easy pouring and mixing of liquids, and it usually has a narrow neck to prevent spills or splashes. The correct answer is flask because it is the most suitable object for holding and measuring liquids.

Submit
5. What is this object?

8. What is this a picture of?

Explanation

This is a picture of a hot plate. A hot plate is a portable electric heating device that is used in laboratories and kitchens to heat or cook substances. It typically consists of a flat surface with heating elements underneath and can be adjusted to different temperature settings. Hot plates are commonly used in scientific experiments, chemical reactions, and cooking processes where precise and controlled heating is required.

9. When you spill something, immediately clean it up.

Explanation

The statement suggests that when you spill something, you should immediately clean it up. However, this is not always true. The appropriate response to a spill depends on the type and quantity of the spilled substance, as well as the surface it has been spilled on. For example, if you spill a small amount of water on a tiled floor, it may not be necessary to clean it up immediately. In some cases, it may be more appropriate to assess the situation and determine the best course of action before cleaning up the spill.
