Another apparatus question: anyone know what this is?
Two glass bulbs connected by a glass tube. Watery orange liquid inside.
**Edit: It's called a "pulse glass" or "Franklin's palm glass."
A liquid with a very low boiling point is sealed. Holding one bulb will boil the liquid and it will flow to the opposite side. Used to show vapor pressure, IMFs, etc. Very cool piece of old equipment.
