There is no such thing as "pridinum" or "pyridinum." The word you're looking for is <em><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pyridinium"
target="_blank">pyridinium</a></em> <img src="../scipics/_ext.png" />.
<a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reflux" target="_blank">Reflux</a> <img src="../scipics/_wiki.png" />
Next time, please put a little effort into your post—you haven't made a positive first impression.

Your reactants are in the flask, the condenser is in the neck of the flask, water flows through the condenser to keep it cool. Heat the flask (the
diagram shows a water bath, but the heat source will depend on the boiling point of the reactants/solvents. For an ethanol solution, a hot water bath
will be fine). Boil the reaction mixture- the fumes will condense in the condenser and flow back into the flask (re-flux = "flow back"), so that you
can keep boiling it (constant, high temperature) with minimal loss of solution.
Be VERY careful with pyridine. It's toxic, can cause sterility, and reeks like rotting fish.
Please remember: "Filtrate" is not a verb.
Write up your lab reports the way your instructor wants them, not the way your ex-instructor wants them.
