4A30.58

Gas source

A safety grove and glasses

Setup:

  1. Install the gas tube from the burner which is already in the blue box with the gas source.
  2. Make sure that you have the gas switch off and in the right pressure that you want before you turn it on.

Cautions, Warnings, or Safety Concerns:

  1. Beware of the heated rods.
  2. Wear the safety grove and glasses.

Demonstration:

  • This demonstration show that different materials have different [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coefficient_of_thermal_expansion coefficient of thermal expansion].
