ELECTRONIC BALANCE
Electronic balances have become standard equipment for many
high school and college chemistry departments. They allow the user to
quickly and accurately measure the mass of a substance to a level of
accuracy impossible for traditional balances to achieve.
ANALYTICAL BALANCE
An analytical balance is a class of balance designed to measure small mass
in the sub-milligram range. The measuring pan of an analytical balance is inside a
transparent enclosure with doors so that dust does not collect and so any air currents
in the room do not affect the balance's operation.

Different instruments used in measuring volume.
BEAKER
A beaker is a generally cylindrical container with a flat bottom.[1] Most also have
a small spout (or "beak") to aid pouring, as shown in the picture. Beakers are available in
a wide range of sizes, from one millilitre up to several litres.
GRADUATED CYLINDER
BURETTE
A burette (also buret) is a graduated glass tube with a tap at one end, for
delivering known volumes of a liquid, especially in titrations. It is a long,
graduated glass tube, with a stopcock at its lower end and a tapered capillary
tube at the stopcock's outlet. The flow of liquid from the tube to the burette tip is
controlled by the stopcock valve. There are two main types of burette; the
volumetric burette and the Piston burette or Digital burette.

RULER
The ruler, also called "straightedge" or "straight-edged
ruler," is a long, thin strip of wood, metal or plastic marked with
increments of measurement. Rulers feature straight flat edges that
aid in measuring and laying out distances in geometry, drafting,
design, architecture and more. Rulers range in length from one
foot to three feet or more, depending on their application.
MEASURING TAPE
The modern measuring tape's roughly palm-sized casing
contains a coiled strip of metal marked with increments of
measurement. The metal strip, called "tape," attaches to a spring
which automatically retracts the tape into the casing following use.
A metal clip attached to the tape's end, called a "tang," allows its
operator to attach the end of the tape to a stationary object and
pull the tape to distant points. Variations include cloth tape
measures encased and retracted by reel.

LASER MEASURE
The laser measure offers point and shoot distance measurement. In
its most basic form, a laser measure is a hand-held electronic device with a
digital display. The measure's operator points the device toward an object
and activates the laser to receive the distance
ANGLE GAUGE
The angle gauge, also called "angle finder,"
measures the angle between adjacent surfaces.
The tool appears as two straightedge rulers hinged
together mark that points to numbers printed at one
end.
CALIPER
The term "calipers" refers to measuring
tools that determine the distance between opposite
sides. Basic calipers feature hinged metal pieces
that either expand to press against and measure
the opposing sides on the inside of an opening or
pinch to close against the opposing exterior sides
of an object. Calipers are often used to measure
the diameter of round objects, such as pipes.
