About

• Shape: Spherical or round body with a flat bottom and a narrow or wide neck.
• Material: Usually borosilicate glass (Borosilicate 3.3) for chemical and thermal resistance.
• Stability: The flat base allows it to sit securely on a bench or hotplate without a stand. 

• Storage: Holding liquids, reagents, or solutions.
• Heating: Gentle heating, boiling, and evaporation due to stability.
• Mixing: Ideal for mixing and swirling liquids.
• Reactions: Suitable for simple chemical synthesis and titrations.
• Distillation: Used with condensers for distillation setups. 

• Stable: Stands on its own, unlike round-bottom flasks.
• Versatile: Good for a range of general lab tasks.
• Reduced Evaporation: Narrow neck minimizes loss of volatile substances.
