Definitions
- Used in chemistry laboratories to measure and dispense precise amounts of liquid. - Commonly used in titration experiments to add a controlled amount of reagent to a solution. - Typically made of glass and has a stopcock at the bottom to control the flow of liquid.
- Also used in chemistry laboratories to measure and dispense precise amounts of liquid. - Similar to a buret, but typically has a graduated scale along its length to measure the volume of liquid dispensed. - Often used in titration experiments to add a controlled amount of reagent to a solution.
List of Similarities

What is the difference?
- 1Design: A buret is typically made of glass and has a stopcock at the bottom, while a burette also has a graduated scale along its length to measure the volume of liquid dispensed.
- 2Usage: The term buret is more commonly used in American English, while burette is more commonly used in British English.
Remember this!
Both buret and burette are used in chemistry laboratories to measure and dispense precise amounts of liquid, particularly in titration experiments. The main difference between the two lies in their design and usage. A buret is made of glass with a stopcock at the bottom, while a burette has a graduated scale along its length to measure the volume of liquid dispensed. Additionally, buret is more commonly used in American English, while burette is more commonly used in British English.
