In addition to the fittings and reagents normally contained in the Chemistry laboratory, the following apparatus and materials will be required by each candidate:

Here is a list of the apparatus and materials required for each candidate, as described in the image:

• a) One burette of 50.0 cm³ capacity.
• b) One pipette, either 20.0 cm³ or 25.0 cm³. All candidates at a centre must use pipettes of the same volume. These should be clean and free from grease.
