Most of the bottle goes into making dilute hydrochloric acid for the bench: staff measure the water first and add the concentrated acid slowly with stirring, in the ratio set by the practical manual. Used directly, a glass rod dipped in the acid and held near ammonia gas produces dense white fumes of ammonium chloride, the standard confirmatory test for ammonia and ammonium salts.
For flame tests, a nichrome or platinum wire is cleaned by dipping it in the acid and heating until the flame shows no colour, and the test salt is moistened with a drop of acid to give a stronger flame colour. The acid releases corrosive hydrogen chloride fumes as soon as the cap is removed, so open and dilute it only inside a fume cupboard, wearing goggles, acid-resistant gloves and an apron.
Store the bottle in a lockable chemistry reagent cabinet, away from alkalis, metal shelving and oxidisers such as bleaching powder or potassium permanganate, which release chlorine with it. Keep an acid spill kit within reach and never leave the bottle where students can reach it unsupervised.
