The lab table is a chemistry table used to make items and blocks from compounds (there are currently only five).

Obtaining

[edit | edit source]

Lab tables can be obtained from the Creative inventory. They cannot be obtained in Survival without commands. In Bedrock Edition, the world must also have the "Education Edition" setting enabled.

Breaking

[edit | edit source]

A lab table can be mined with any tool, but pickaxes are faster.

Usage

[edit | edit source]
Image
The interface of the lab table

Using the lab table opens a 1×9 grid, where elements and compounds can be inserted to perform experiments. The locations of the items in the grid do not affect the outcome. When ready to conduct an experiment, clicking the Combine button initiates the process.

Jar

If the result is a viable product, the top images animate to indicate whether a liquid, gas, or solid has been produced. Shortly after, the menu closes, and the successful product appears on the table. If the combined materials did not create a viable product, the process results in a garbage item and one of few randomly selected animations.

Trivia

[edit | edit source]
  • Even when two compounds that do not react when combined in real life (like water and salt, or multiple items of the same compound), when they are combined in the lab table, the fire and/or explosion effect still appears, creating a garbage item.
