Answer:

weighing balance/analytical balance

Graduated cylinder/buret

Explanation:

The mass of the evaporating basin could be measured using a weighing balance or an analytical balance. Both are classified as weighing scales but the analytical balance can measure the mass of objects up to 4 decimal places, thus, providing better accuracy in measurement than ordinary weighing balance that can only measure up to 2 decimal places.

In order to measure 50 cm3 of the sea water, a graduated cylinder or a buret can be used. Both equipment can measure up to the same decimal places and, thus, have virtually the same accuracy.

This problem is providing the length in inches of a rod and it is being required to convert it to centimeters. According to the following, the answer will be 43.7 cm:

<h3>Units conversion:</h3><h3 />

In science, we use units conversion to represent measurements in different types of units depending on a specific requirement. To do so, we use conversion factors based on equivalence statements, relating the required unit with the given one.

In this case, the equivalence statement between inches and centimeters is 2.54 cm = 1 in and we can use it to get the answer as shown below:

$17.2in*\frac{2.54cm}{1in} \\\\=43.7 cm$
