Talk:Florence flask

no title
All containers hold "chemicals;" I think it would be more contextually accurate to say that Florence flasks are often used to hold "solutions" or "solutions of chemicals." Mihovil 02:04, 22 August 2006 (UTC)

The chemicals need not be solutions; they can be solids or neat liquids. --Rifleman 82 03:54, 22 August 2006 (UTC)

Pointless article
This whole article could be condensed to one or two sentences and should be merged with laboratory glassware.

For example, it says they're made from borosilicate to prevent chipping, when borosilicate is very easy to chip. And that they're usually 1 liter. Seems like a fairly arbitrary number to pick to me. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 82.24.47.178 (talk • contribs) 17:18, 2 July 2010 (UTC)

I disagree about merging this with laboratory glassware. The laboratory glassware article is already out of hand because of the large number of items.

An article on laboratory flasks may be more appropriate. A Florence flask is very similar to other types of laboratory flasks. Agriculturist50 (talk) 19:40, 17 November 2017 (UTC)

wrong
a florence flask has a flat bottom. A ROUND-BOTTOM flask has a round bottom and was the precourser to the florence flask.68.79.171.188 (talk) 00:31, 11 November 2012 (UTC)Ice


 * This is confusing. The image at Laboratory_flask shows a round bottom. -Ac44ck (talk) 00:05, 14 July 2014 (UTC)
