F.8(2) - Conversion of Gases Apparatus
A metal box (23 cm x 10 cm x 10 cm) is closed at the front with a glass panel and has two glass lamp chimneys on top. A holder under one chimney lets you place a candle under it, warming up the chimney's base. The convection currents this causes can be seen by using a smoke source over the other chimney.
