Question

The following procedure was carried out to determine thevolume

Answer 1

Answer: Volume of the flask is 31.34 mL.

Explanation:

Weight of empty flask $w_1$  = 56.12 grams

Weight of flask with water  $w_2$ = 87.39 grams

Weight of water $w_3$ = $w_2-w_1$  = (87.39 - 56.12) grams= 31.27 grams  

Density of water =  0.9976 g/mL

0.9976 grams are contained in = 1 ml of water

Thus 31.27 grams  are contained in = $\frac{1}{0.9976}\times 31.27=31.34$ ml of water.

Thus the volume of the flask is 31.34 mL.
