Mortar and Pestle Porcelain
Product Code : JL-LEP-10269
The Mortar and Pestle Porcelain from Jaincolab, a trusted school laboratory equipment manufacturer, is used to pulverize, mash, grind and mix materials in a mortar using a pestle, demonstrating how particle size affects solubility and the rate of a chemical reaction.
Decreasing the size of the particles increases the rate of dissolving and speeds up the rate of reaction, because the surface area of the reactant is increased. This set is made of porcelain, with a bowl-shaped mortar with a wide mouth and deeply molded, smooth rounded bottom, paired with a cylindrical pestle with a bulbous bottom. As a leading school laboratory equipment manufacturer, Jaincolab supplies this mortar and pestle as per DEPED Guidelines to schools, colleges and laboratories across India and internationally.
