What does BURET mean in Scrabble?
noun
chemistry
A long graduated glass tube fitted with a stopcock at the bottom, used in a laboratory to measure and dispense precise amounts of liquid.
A buret is clamped upright and filled with a measured liquid, which is then released drop by drop through the stopcock while the falling level is read against the scale printed on the glass. Chemists rely on this control mainly during titration, when a reagent must be added slowly until a reaction reaches its endpoint. The spelling burette is also common and reflects the word's French origin.
