Transferring chemicals
Chemicals can be transferred between vessels by:
Transferring chemicals directly. You can transfer the contents of one vessel to another.
- Click and drag your source vessel over the destination vessel.
- The pour-cursor appear if the contents of the source vessel can be transferred, and if the destination vessel can accept them.
- Release the mouse button to transfer the entire contents of the source vessel into the destination vessel.
Key points:
- Certain vessels, such as the pipette, will not accept chemicals transferred in this way.
- You cannot transfer anything to a stock chemical vessel.
- If the destination vessel is full, it will not accept any further chemicals.
Pouring. You can pour the contents of any open piece of glassware into another.
- Move the source vessel above the destination vessel.
- Rotate the upper vessel so that its contents fall into the lower vessel.
