Fig. 4- Fig. 5- Fig. 6. washed tubes may be inverted to drain. Figure 5 illustrates the applianceused to hold tubes when their contents are to be boiled, and fig. 6 shows thebrush used for cleansing them. In quantitative analysis precipitation is generally performed in are very thin tumblers made of glass, free from lead, and annealed soas to permit their use with boiling liquids without risk of fracture. Precipitates are separated from the supernatant liquor by one of twomethods. First:— IV. DECANTATION, which consists in allowing the precipitate to settle tothe bottom, and pouring off the clear liquor. This isbest done by the use of a glass rod held as shown in theillustration, fig. 7.
