Key Stage 3
Meaning
A reaction vessel is a container designed for chemical reactions to take place inside.
About Reaction Vessels
- In industry reaction vessels are made of unreactive metals.
- In a laboratory most reaction vessels are made of glass or ceramic since they are unreactive so do not interfere with the reaction taking place.
- Reaction vessels in the lab include:
