Hello all,
I was burning sulphur in an oxygen combustion flask and the stopper was stuck in the neck of it. How can I remove it without breaking it? Thanks in advance.
Hello. Try to knock a bit.
Best regards,
Dmitriy A. Perlow
Another possibility is to use a heat gun on "low" (or, even better, a hair dryer) to *gently* warm the neck of the flask. That may expand it enough to let you pull the stopper.
