Simple - in this al/hg, could someone explain why the guy has a claisen adaptor there? if he's just holding it in reflux then the condensor should suffice. Is there a baloon attached to that adaptor to hold in any gas if it runs away? or??
Swim was contemplating using an heatproof glass/plastic container with a lid and attaching a reflux condensor made from two different sized fluroescent tube sections glued together, so is wondering wtf the claisen adaptor is for and if so can it be omitted or one has to rig up a new condensor.
