WASTE DISPOSAL/CLEANUP

  • Return the test tube and probe to the hot water bath. When the mixture is completely liquefied, remove the probe.

  • Carry the hot test tube to the disposal container and pour the liquid into the container. Use the squeeze bottle of acetone to rinse the test tube twice with 2 or 3 mL of acetone. The acetone must be poured into the container labeled "Acetone Waste". DO NOT combine the two different waste products.

  • Place the rinsed test tube in the tray provided.

  • Carefully rinse the temperature probe with acetone from a squeeze bottle. Two or 3 milliliters is sufficient. The waste should be poured into the "Acetone Waste" container.

  • Dry the probe with a Kimwipe and lay the probe on a clean paper towel.

  • Clean up your area by organizing and storing the equipment and washing glassware. Wash your hands.

    CAUTION: acetone is flammable; extinguish all flames
