Put two syringes in a tray drawn to the 5ml mark ---- now make sure that they are labelled as you dont want them to use the wrong one now do you.
And they are the smart ones ?????????????
I think this goes as best order of the term so far......

Mind you I have empty sealed vials in my box of "Elements" marked Nitrogen, Oxygen etc, but at least my teachers KNOW that they are fake!

We DO have a method to prepare these!
Our chemistry teacher uses syringes and various chemicals to make them.
