7、D)the intended capacity ofdistilled water at 20C when the last drop is blown out,exceptthe 0.25 mL Kahn pipet;this Kahn pipet shall have a clearungraduated space of not less than 63 mm between thelowermost graduation mark and the tip of the pipet.The pipetshall be filled about 10 mm above the capaci
8、ty line.Removeany water on the outside of the tip by a downward wipe withfilter paper.Next,place the tip in contact with the wetted wallof a beaker and slowly lower the meniscus to the capacity line.Do not remove any water remaining on the tip at this time.Delivery of the contents into a receiving v
9、essel is made withthe tip in contact with the wall of the vessel.When the waterhas ceased to flow,the water remaining in the tip is then blownout with one firm puff with the tip in contact with the wall ofthe vessel,if possible.No after-drainage period is allowed.Capacity tolerances shall be within
10、the limits given in Table 1.4.3 AnnealingThe maximum residual thermal stress shallbe such as to conform to Specification E671,except thattempered tips or tempered tops,or both,may be supplied at theoption of the manufacturer.The tempered tip,when examinedin index oil that matches the refractive inde
11、x of the glass beingused,shall have a temper between 75 and 220 nm.5.Design5.1 ShapeThe pipets shall be straight and of one-piececonstruction.Any cross section of a pipet taken in a planeperpendicular to the longitudinal axis shall be circular.5.2 Delivery TipsDelivery tips shall be made with agradu
