How to Use the Glass Pneumatic Trough

1️⃣ Fill the trough with water to a level that allows submersion of a gas collection jar.

2️⃣ Invert the gas collection jar into the trough while keeping the jar filled with water.

3️⃣ Insert the delivery tube from the reaction flask into the inverted gas jar.

4️⃣ Allow the gas to displace water in the jar as it is collected.

5️⃣ Seal the gas jar with a stopper for further analysis or storage.
