Uses of the polyethylene Kipp's apparatus
A Kipp's apparatus is used to generate gas at the bench only when it is needed: opening the stopcock lets acid reach the solid and gas is produced, and closing it pushes the acid back and stops the reaction.
- Preparation of hydrogen sulphide from a metal sulphide and dilute acid
- Generation of hydrogen or carbon dioxide from suitable reagents
- Qualitative inorganic analysis in school and college chemistry
- Demonstrating controlled gas generation
