Aim: To know the basic techniques of boring a cork and fitting the glass tubes.
Materials Required:
• Cork Borer, Glass tube
Precautions to be taken during the experiment: • Mark the rubber cork on both sides where you exactly want to drill the hole
• Select a cork borer of a smaller size than the diameter of the tube that

• Keep your face far and hold the glass tube away. • Place the cork as shown in the figure. Keep the smaller end on the table
• Never bend the glass tube by force. Doing so can break the tube. and the bigger end facing up.
EXERIMENT NO –1 (C) • Hold the cork firmly in the left hand and place the cork borer on the
marked area of the bore.
Aim: To know the basic techniques of drawing a glass tube into a jet shape.
• Note: dip the borer in water or glycerine before placing it on the cork
Materials Required: • Push the borer vertically in the downward direction.
• Apply gentle pressure and drill the hole by rotating the borer
• 20-25 cm long glass tube , Triangular file

• Bunsen Burner , Sandpaper
• After boring one side of the cork halfway, drill out the other side of the
cork too. Start to bore the other side until a hole is drilled.

for drawing into a jet.
• Cut the glass tube to the required length with the help of a triangular file. Precautions to be taken during the experiment:
• Using the hottest portion of the Bunsen burner flame heat the tube by
holding it at both the ends. • Make a mark on both sides of the cork exactly since it cannot be adjusted
after the process is done.
• Gently rotate the tube until the portion which is in contact with the flame
becomes red hot and softens. • To obtain a smooth hole, drill half the hole from one side and other half
from another side of the cork.
• Remove the glass tube from the flame and pull the ends apart slowly and
smoothly until it becomes narrow in the middle and then stretches into a
fine jet.
• Cut the tube in the middle and rub the ends using sandpaper and do the
fire polishing till the ends are smooth.

Test for Nitrogen
The extract is boiled with FeSO4 and acidified with concentrated

presence of nitrogen.
The following reactions occur,
The acid helps in the oxidation of ferrous ions to ferric ions. The
formation of ferriferous cyanide indicates the presence of nitrogen.
Note: This test is not given by compounds containing N but not C
atoms. For example, NH2NH2 does not answer this test despite having
an N atom. This is because both C and N are required to form CN – ion.
