The density of a pure liquid at 25 degrees Celsius was calculated by determining the mass and volume of a sample of the liquid.
A student measured the mass of a clean, dry 25.00 mL volumetric flask, filled the flask to its calibration mark with the liquid, and then measured the mass of the flask and liquid. The recorded measurements are shown in the table above. On the basis of this information, to how many significant figures should the density of the liquid be reported?

Answer:The volume increases by 11%
Explanation:
When the pressure is decreased, the volume must definitely increase, to maintain the same pressure, the temperature must then also be increased as we see in the question. The volume was increased just as the pressure decreased and the temperature had to be increased to maintain a constant pressure. We have applied the general gas equation in solving the problem.
