6. Test tube rack
7. Tripod
8. Alcohol (ethanol)
9. Ceramic tile
0. Variegated leaf
1. Germanium leaf

3. Beaker
4. Iodine
5. Splint
Method
. Firstly heat 150ml of water using a Bunsen burner. Rest the beaker of water on a gauze which I on the tripod. Wait for a few minutes until the water starts bubbling vigorously.
