Answer:

25.99mL is the volume internal volume of the flask

Explanation:

<em>To complete the question:</em>

<em>The temperature of the water was measured to be 21ºC. Use this data to find the internal volume of the stoppered flask</em>

<em />

The flask was filled with water, that means the internal volume of the flask is equal to the volume that the water occupies.

To find the volume of the water you need to find the mass and by the use of density of water at 21ºC (0.997992g/mL), you can find the volume of the flask, thus:

Mass water = Mass filled flask - Mass of clean flask

Mass water = 60.167g - 34.232g

Mass water = 25.935g of water.

To convert this mass to volume:

25.935g × (1mL / 0.997992g) =

<h3>25.99mL is the volume internal volume of the flask</h3>
