Re: Add some life to the Labs
Frog's lizards, snakes in persertives in a jar, also seems also bring the students to the glass cabnet to look see. These cabnets are locked, so we do not seems to have any thing go missing.

Re: Cobalt Chloride Paper
So far so good. Remove the drying trays from the oven while still hot, and with forceps, place the strips in a air tight wide neck jar, amber glass is better, with a good lid. Put some Silica in the bottom, Blue & Pink beads, they will help keep the Moisturiser out of the Cobalt Chloride paper. ...

WE do not have a microwave oven in our prep room. I also hate pressure cookers. So do not sterlize my agar plates.

Re: Help please, I feel like Homer Simpson !!!
I would suggest you put that glass container in the waste collection, to be picked up at a later date. Just label it with the contents. Our bible in NSW does not have Uranyl Nitrate in it, so I can not help you. HCL should be Neutralised first with Sodium Bicarbonate, then Dilute Down Sink to waste....

Re: CuSO4
I have always put sulfuric Acid in our Copper Sulfate, I believe it keeps it longer. Or perhaps I have got it mixed up a little. Copper Sulfate pentahydrate has a much longer shelf life. But putting Acid into must do some thing else.
Hurry up Robb we need you

The head teacher before: purchased CASIO data loggers, the books had gone missing, along with a few pieces. When we rung CASIO up for help, well it just did not appear.

The teachers like to do, it them selves, I guess they put the water in first, then add the conc Sulfuric Acid. Even by pushing the rubber electrodes up it still leaks. I really ...
