Writing Scientist Characters

this post is mainly an excuse to post a certain list of lab supplies I've made for a friend and infodump about lab work. but feel free to use this as a little resource when writing characters who are scientists and/or lab nerds. who knows, maybe it'll be of use.

General thoughts

Many people think it's a stereotype that scientist or nerd characters talk using complex technical jargon. While that is true to an extent, there actually is some kind of lab jargon. It varies across different labs and fields, but one thing they have in common is that it seeks to simplify, not the other way around.

gelelectrophoresis becomes elpho

microbiology becomes mibi

deioninized water becomes aqua dist

biochemistry becomes BC

sodium hydroxide becomes NaOH

They will probably not call a glass of water "silicon dioxide and h2o".

...and more. feel free to get creative. If you're writing in any other language than English, you can throw in one or two anglicisms as well. Also, most scientists will never gatekeep their work, and in an opposite fashion, will not shut up about it unless you make them. And no, most chemists do not know the entire periodic table by heart, only the most relevant elements. (main groups and a few commonly used metals of the subgroups) When it comes to characters doing the lab work, keep in mind that there are a lot more people involved than the scientist themself. Most scientists are more occupied with paperwork and data analysis, it is the laboratory technicians and assistants that do most of the practical work. They often have more lab experience than the scientists themselves.

Things you can have your lab nerd character do instead of making random chemicals explode

writing a lab report (and losing their mind over excel)

degreasing the glass bevel stoppers

removing the permanent marker from beakers (labeling is important)

Highlights from more or less every chemistry lab practical ever:

1. the six or seven unfortunate people who get either ammonium or bromide - every few minutes *COUGh* *cOuGh* *COUGH* "YEEEEOWWWWW IT'S GETTING IN MY EYES" - the extremely unfortunate person who happens to get ammonium bromide; or, if that person is a complete ass, their extremely unfortunate friend 2. *sucks on pipette* *sucks harder* "OOOAOOHISFOFHJ I GOT OXALIC ACID IN MY MOUTH SPIT SPAT UGHKSFHJSGFAJK"

3. That moment when the burette reading goes past 10 ml and the acid solution still shows no sign of permanently turning pink - "Um sir I'm pretty sure you gave us counterfeit NaOH solution" - *turns the burette stopcock too hard* *a river of NaOH starts flowing" 4. *sticks paste-covered hand into your nose without any explanation* *sniffs instinctively* "Yeah there's no vinegar smell." "Aww :("

Getting to Know You - P1

Summary: Mike isn't exactly excited when he sees who he's paired up with for chemistry, not because you're a bully, but because you're a mystery. Now, he's doing what he can to solve said mystery.

Pairing: Mike Wheeler x Fem!Reader

WC: 1540

Warnings: none! (maybe swearing?)

A/N: SORRY FOR THE ABSENCE i have been busy preparing to leave for uni (which is quite literally across the world) but i have been reading so many mike wheeler fics i cant get enough of this skinny malnourished emotionally constipated boy

(divider by @delishlydelightfuldividers)

Mike’s eyes trailed down the blackboard as he looked for his name. His teacher said that they’d be starting experiments, and the name of your lab partner would be listed next to yours on the board.

Mike Wheeler & Y/N Y/L/N

He wasn’t exactly sure what to think. Y/N Y/L/N was sort of an enigma to the Hawkins High community. There was no girls team for sports besides cheer, so naturally, she fought tooth and nail to be on the boy’s soccer and swim team. Half of the team adored her for her blunt personality and respected her ability in the sport, the other half hated her for ‘contaminating’ the guy’s team. Y/N didn’t care at all what people had to say about her, claiming the coach had ‘no respect for the sport or any person’s ability in it’ when he initially didn’t allow her to be on the soccer team. It took even longer for her to be accepted to swim, something about ‘you can’t have the girl swimming with the guys, she’ll be a distraction!’ 

Lucas had dragged him and the rest of the party along to a few of her soccer matches before, saying she was a whizz on the field and definitely someone to watch. Most of the group didn’t exactly enjoy the sport, or the people who played it, but they watched to keep Lucas happy. El and Max thought she was so cool, for standing up to her challenges and fighting to play. Dustin laughed as he watched the opponents complain and whine whenever Y/N scored or stole the ball from them. Will wasn’t exactly opinionated, he just tagged along for the general excitement that comes from any sports game. Steve was forced to babysit, who brought Robin along, and they seemed to just talk amongst themselves for most of the game, except for any time someone would score. 

Mike didn’t exactly hate her, to be fair he didn’t really know much about her, other than her ability to argue to be on sports teams. He wasn’t exactly excited to work with her, but at least she wasn’t some bully, so he didn’t have too much to complain about either.

“Wheeler, hurry up, let’s get this done with!” you called out to him as you finished setting up the equipment on the bench.

“How the hell have you already got this, class started like 3 minutes ago?”

“I’m fast like that, now come on, let’s get this done early so we can spend time doing what we want?”

“Yeah but it’s a whole titration…”

“And? Like I said, I’m fast. Wouldn’t you rather be figuring out stuff for Hellfire?”

Mike gawked at you as you continued to pour the various chemicals into the glassware.

“Close your mouth. Are you going to sit there or will you help?”

“You know about Hellfire?” he asked as he handed you the other material.

“Yeah… Why wouldn’t I?” you responded as you bent over to look at the burette more closely.

“Uhm… I just thought… It’s not exactly your style…”

“What’s that supposed to mean?”

“Well, y’know, you’re all, sporty and stuff. You hang out with the popular kids!”

“Please, you think my friends and I are popular? The popular kids give me shit for being a girl on the boy’s team, I am not popular.” you couldn’t help but laugh at his reaction.

“You totally are! You’re a jock!”

“And just because I play sports means that I wouldn’t know about your club?”

“Yeah, wait no, I mean, yeah! I didn’t know you cared about us!”

“I don’t.”

“Oh.”

“But I know y’all exist. Your leader, Munson? He’s”

“Loud.” “A freak, I know.” you both said at the same time. Mike’s jaw dropped again, surprised that you didn’t say the same thing as him.

“What, why would you call him a freak? Isn’t he your friend?”

“He is, but, I expected you to say that he’s a freak.”

“Why would I call him that?”

“Because, that’s kinda what we’re known for…? Y’know? People call us devil worshippers, especially Eddie.”

“If you haven’t noticed, I don’t follow popular opinion. I don’t think of you as freaks, or devil worshippers. You guys just play a game you like and you’re passionate about it. Munson just so happens to be loud, so of course I’d notice the guy standing on top of the table and yelling about his club.”

“Yeah, I guess you’re right.”

“Okay switch, I’ve done the first part, you do the rest. I’ll record the results.”

“Uh, yeah, sure.”

Mike wasn’t sure why he was feeling so weird. He barely knew you, and yet somehow he was so surprised at your personality. He half expected to be laughed at for the whole lesson, but to learn that you’re not as judgemental, but also know about him, and don’t see him and his friends as devil worshippers? He felt like someone had turned him upside down onto his head.

“Wheeler.”

“Yeah?”

“You’re staring at me. Stop staring at get your work done.”

A blush rose to his cheeks as he kicked his ass into high gear to finish the experiment. Your words from earlier, telling him to finish early so you could to what you wanted, resonated in his head, but he no longer wanted to think about DND. His mind was occupied with you, standing in sweats and a crop top with your swimsuit peeking out from underneath. 

“Do you, uh, have a match later?” he muttered as he continued the experiment.

“Nah, just practice, I have the state championships this weekend.”

“Oh really? I’m sure you’ll do great, in…” he trailed off as he tried to think of what stroke you were known for, earning a giggle from you, as you could clearly tell he didn’t know what he was talking about.

“It’s okay Mike, I know you don’t keep up with swimming.”

“But I want to!”

“Do you want to because you enjoy swimming, or because you feel bad that I’ve noticed your interests and you haven’t noticed mine?”

“How the hell do you do that?”

“How the hell do I do what?”

“Be so, smart? And honest? You like, say what you want, and you’re right.”

“I’ve kinda learned to not give a shit, y’know? I stand out already with being the only girl on the team, why not just be myself? I don’t care for labels or stereotypes.”

“That’s really cool.”

“Yeah? You should try it sometimes.”

“What do you mean?” he asked as he stood up to look at you properly.

“Work, Wheeler, get the experiment done.”

“Right, sorry.”

“You seem to care a lot about cliques, about the reputation you and others have. Who gives a damn if someone thinks y’all are devil worshippers, they don’t know you, so why do they matter?”

“That’s a… good point. Dunno, I just hate bullies.”

“So do I, but I don’t pay any mind to them, and that makes em leave me alone because they know they can’t bother me.”

“That’s admirable, but I’m not at that level yet.”

“That’s fine, it comes with time and practice. I wasn’t always like this.”

“Really? You seem so badass.”

“Nah, I cried so hard the first time I was denied entry on the soccer team.”

“What?! You can cry?”

You couldn’t help but laugh at Mike’s comment. 

“Do you seriously think I’m some stone cold no feelings no bullshit girl?”

“Yeah…? Are you not?”

“Mike Wheeler, you know nothing about me, at all.”

“Can I… get to know you? Okay wait, that came out weird, I swear I’m not like, obsessed with you or anything, I mean it’s really cool that you’re all ba-“

You doubled over laughing at his nerves, panting as you tried to catch your breath from laughing too hard. Luckily someone else had made a mess of their experiment, meaning the teacher’s attention was on them and rather on you.

“Mike, do I make you that nervous?” you teased as you noticed his face slightly turning pink.

“Is it that obvious?” he replied as he laughed at himself. 

“I know you didn’t mean it in a creepy way, don’t worry. And sure, if you promise me one thing.”

“What is it?”

“Try not to judge a book by it’s cover yeah? You’ll end up doing the same thing those ‘bullies’ do.”

“Yeah, got it. Is uh, your swim competition open to anyone to watch?” 

“Nah, you need a ticket, why you want one?”

“Yeah, I wanna watch you win!”

“Mike, do you even know the four strokes…?”

“No, but, you can teach me?”

“Yeah, I’ll teach you. I’ll get you your ticket tomorrow.”

For the rest of the class you couldn’t help but laugh as you made small talk with him, conversing about really anything and everything. Mike could have sworn that he felt something, some slightly foreign feeling, somewhere in his mind, but he pushed it away as he tried to get to know you better. Every time you sent him a smile he couldn’t help but feel hot, like he was coming down with some cold. It was definitely something to ask Eddie about, but that was for another day.

What is the use of a Burette in a Laboratory?

Every laboratory that undergoes experiments and scientific research, is equipped with a variety of instruments that are designed to ensure precise measurements and accurate results. Among so many instruments, the burette stands out for playing a major role in titration and other analytical procedures. 

Thus, it’s important to understand the use of a burette as it’s essential for students, researchers, and professionals involved in scientific experiments, particularly in the fields of chemistry and biology. Alongside, using E-burettes in labs is becoming more beneficial for its reliability. However, it totally depends on the lab experiments and the demand for manual or automatic burettes. 

What is a Burette?

A typical burette is a long, cylindrical glass tube with a graduated scale marked in milliliters (mL) and typically with subdivisions of 0.1 mL. It is fitted with a stopcock at the bottom, which controls the release of the liquid inside. Henceforth, burettes are commonly used in titrations for liquid handling of volumes as a liquid reagent (known as the titrant) into a solution of known concentration (the analyte) until a reaction reaches completion. 

Components of a Burette

Graduated Glass Tube: The main body of the burette, which is marked with a scale for measuring the volume of liquid dispensed.

Stopcock: A valve at the bottom of the burette that can be turned to release or stop the flow of liquid.

Tip: The narrow end of the burette from which the liquid is dispensed.

Uses of a Burette in the Laboratory

Titration:

Primary Use: The primary use of a burette in the laboratory is for titration, a technique used to determine the concentration of an unknown solution by adding a solution of known concentration until the reaction reaches an endpoint.

Acid-Base Titrations: In acid-base titrations, the burette dispenses a titrant (acid or base) into the analyte until the endpoint is reached, usually indicated by a color change of an indicator.

Redox Titrations: Burettes are also used in redox titrations, where an oxidizing agent is titrated against a reducing agent, or vice versa, to determine the concentration of the reactants.

Preparation of Standard Solutions:

Burettes are used to accurately measure the volume of reagents needed to prepare standard solutions. The precise control offered by the stopcock ensures that the exact amount of liquid is dispensed, leading to accurate solution preparation.

Chemical Analysis:

Burettes are essential in various types of chemical analysis where precise volume measurements are crucial. This includes complexometric titrations used to determine metal ion concentrations in solutions. 

Calibration and Testing:

Burettes are often used to calibrate other laboratory instruments, such as pipettes and dispensers. Their accuracy helps ensure that other measurement tools are functioning correctly.

Teaching and Demonstration:

In educational settings, burettes are used to teach students about the principles of titration and the importance of precision as a laboratory instrument. They provide a visual and practical understanding of how chemical reactions can be quantified. 

Conclusion

The use of a burettes is quite common in laboratories, particularly in chemistry and biology labs where titration is a popular procedure. Its ability to measure and dispense precise volumes of liquid makes it essential for accurate and reliable experimental results. Thus, by understanding how to properly use and maintain a burette, you can ensure the integrity of  data and the success of experiments. Whether in research, education, or industry, the burette remains a fundamental liquid handling instrument for achieving precise and controlled chemical analysis.

Science Labs, Laboratory Equipment And Lab Safety Essentials

Although the subject science is taken up just like any other topic while observing any well-equipped and systematically organized science classroom or a work room, the difference can be distinguished. The science room will not be the same as other subjects like the languages, mathematics or similar. The science rooms are those set-ups which are meant for both theoretical studies and practical performances or study as well. Simple equipments like tables included with sinks, Bunsen burners, glass wares like beakers, conical flasks, burettes, pipettes, test tubes and similar equipment are intended to help pupils learn chemistry by performing relevant experiments that enable the student to understand the concepts and theories well.

A science laboratory with proper equipment enables the scholars to perform experiments and observe the theoretically studied matter actually take place before them, which makes the study exciting making this hands-on learning stress-free and comprehend interesting concepts and perceptions in a comparatively easier way. For learners who opt for a science-based career, reading without performing experiments about science would be very challenging hence these experiments are significant in providing the students with the necessary knowledge.

All the same performing experiments in a laboratory has its own risks on the flip side. Since most of the experiments especially the ones concerned with the chemicals, are quite hazardous if proper care and safety measures are not exercised. So in order to maintain proper safety and make the lab environment favorable for study and carryout relevant experiments certain safety equipments and measures mandatorily have to be practiced.

One of the important and essential and common safety gear is the apron or the laboratory coat. Usually of white color, and a material that is thick and protective, the lab coat protects the chemicals from reaching the skin in case of accidental spurting or spilling. Since these coats are long enough in length and are provided with buttons in the front the wearing and removing the coat will be easier, likewise while using the coats during performing experiments it is highly advised to keep the coat properly buttoned so that any accidental contact of the chemicals to the skin can be averted.

While the safety equipment is an important and critical aspect, supply of such materials to laboratories is also a complex task. Organizations that are qualified and experienced in this sector can only carry out such jobs of consistent supply of high quality materials. Organizations like Gaia science have been in the industry with a capability of making available the state-of-the-art laboratory equipment and products. Striving to provide scientific and technological advancement with respect to lab equipment, for esteemed and reputed clients, Gaia science has been one of the pioneers in the supply of laboratory and lab safety equipment.

Difference Between Pipettes, Burettes, and Graduated Cylinders!

Some people don't completely understand all the applications of glassware in chemistry. Therefore, it's crucial to distinguish between measuring cylinders, burets such as acrylic burets, and measuring cylinders if you're planning to conduct any chemistry job. Understanding the many types of glassware will aid you in choosing the best option for your needs.

Graduated Cylinders 

Graduated cylinders are ideal for measuring bulk volumes. They are intended to show precisely how much liquid is in the cylinder. When compared to pipettes and burettes, they have many advantages. Compared to a pipette, burettes enable the dispensing of more significant amounts. They are calibrated from bottom to top for this reason.

Burette

On the other hand, a burette is made to show how much liquid it is dispensing. It is calibrated from top to bottom for this reason. A burette is a long tube of glass with a tap at the bottom. One kind of burette has graduations running the length of it, spaced two cubic centimeters apart. To increase its level of precision and display the complete volume of a substance at each mark, it contains extra minor marks in between.

Pipettes

Compared to graduated cylinders and burettes, which can measure any amount up to their maximum capacity, pipettes can only measure a particular volume.

Difference Between Graduated Cylinders, Burette, and Pipettes

The fact that pipettes are read from top to bottom because of their calibration is a drawback. They are significantly more prone to human error because they are read from top to bottom. Because of this, it is wise to be aware of the glassware you are using and choose the type that best fulfills your needs. If you have difficulty reading the amount of liquid measured with burettes, try using a graduated cylinder instead. Additionally, the cylinder's markings are typically seen as simpler to read.

Graduated cylinders come in a broad range of sizes. The most frequently used sizes include 10 ml, 25 ml, 100 ml, 500 ml, and up to 2 liters. It is occasionally necessary to manage the necessary volume of liquid using measuring cylinders. Use a measuring cylinder if precision is your primary concern.

A graduated cylinder is therefore preferred whenever possible. Still, you can also use a pipette or burette if the circumstance doesn't require the highest degree of accuracy or if other methods could be more appropriate.

The accuracy of a burette's readings, such as acrylic burets, is calibrated to 0.2 cubic centimeters. On the other hand, a pipette is calibrated with a filling line that provides an exact volume of the substance it has at the specific spot and has a bulge in the center. Using a clean volumetric pipette, you can measure to an accuracy of 0.01 milliliters.

Conclusion

Understanding the various types of glassware is crucial for anyone planning to pursue a career in academia. Everyone from professionals to students must ensure that they are known to succeed. Because it is essential knowledge that should be committed to memory, chemistry classes test their pupils on the differences between all equipment early in their studies.
