Kipps Apparatus

Our clients can avail from a wide range of Kipps Apparatus. It is an apparatus designed for preparation of small volumes of gases. This apparatus has three vertically stacked cylinders: the acid is put into the top cylinder, solid material (e.g., iron sulfide) is placed into the middle cylinder, which has a tube with a stopcock attached that is used to draw off the evolved gas. When the stopcock is closed, the pressure of the gas in the middle cylinder rises and expels the acid back into the top cylinder, until it is not in contact with the solid material anymore, and the chemical reaction stops.
