A combustion train replicating Liebig's setupfor elementary analysis. It begins with a heating tray containing a test tube containing the sample and copper oxide. Next comes a U-tube containing a powder that absorbs water. Next comes the kaliapparat with a strong base inside to absorb carbon dioxide. From the Liebig Museum in Giessen, Germany.
