Kit for Demonstration of CO2 Emission and Heat Production in Germinating
Product Code : SCL-BLE-12404
The Kit for Demonstration of CO2 Emission and Heat Production in Germinating (SKU SCL-BLE-12404) shows that germinating seeds respire, giving off carbon dioxide and heat. It has two 250 ml Erlenmeyer flasks, silicone tubes with two-hole rubber stoppers, a single-hole stopper, a 500 ml three-neck round glass flask, a 0 to 100°C thermometer, baryta water and a three-valve aspiration pump. This germinating seed CO2 kit suits school and college biology practicals, and JaincoLab manufactures it.
Specifications
The kit contains two 250 ml Erlenmeyer flasks, a pair of silicone tubes with two-hole rubber stoppers, one single-hole rubber stopper, a 500 ml spherical glass flask with three necks, a 0 to 100°C thermometer, a bottle of baryta water (barium hydroxide solution) and one three-valve aspiration pump.

Applications of the germinating seed CO2 kit
Air drawn by the aspiration pump over germinating seeds bubbles through baryta water, which turns milky as carbon dioxide is absorbed, while the thermometer in the three-neck flask records the rise in temperature caused by respiration.
- Showing carbon dioxide release by germinating seeds
- Measuring heat produced during respiration
- Testing for carbon dioxide with baryta water
- Comparing germinating and dry seeds
- Respiration practicals in biology
