Analytical balance calculates weights based on the force required to balance the mass of a sample rather than utilizing actual masses.

Wear a lab coat, safety glasses, gloves, etc. as required for the experiment. students are required to wear safety equipment

An analytical balance (or chemical balance) is a class of balance designed to measure small mass in the sub-milligram range. The measuring pan of an analytical balance (0.1 mg resolution or better) is inside a transparent enclosure with doors so that dust does not collect and so any air currents in the room do not affect the balance's operation. This enclosure is often called a draft shield.
