Question

I need help with question 3. The answers to question 2 is above the questions.  

Procedure
You are given an UNKNOWN VOLATILE LIQUID. You put 5 mL in a weighed flask tightly capped
with a piece of aluminum foil with a pinhole.
This is heated in a boiling water bath, until the vapors completely displace all the air, and all of the
liquid has evaporated.
The pin is replaced. The flask is then cooled to recondense the vapors and weighed.
The exact volume of the flask is also determined.

Questions
2.
Average volume =147 mL
And molar mass from each trial is- Trial 1, molar mass = 164.37 g/mol, Trial 2: Molar mass
=254.26 g/mol, Trial 3: Molar mass = 184.92 g/mol
2. Calculate the average volume of the flask using the data from your three measurements. Use
this average value to calculate the molar mass of your volatile liquid for each of your three trials
of mass determination. (Don't forget to convert your temperature to the absolute scale.)
3. Calculate the average molar mass from your three trials. Calculate the standard deviation in
your value for molar mass. (See the popcorn experiment for the equation)
4. Explain why the pin must be replaced into the pinhole during cooling of the flask.
5. Due to the fact that the liquid you used was a volatile one, it will not completely recondense.
Some of the liquid remains in the vapor phase, even at room temperature. If you were able
to correct for this by making the vapors recondense completely, would your final molar
mass value be greater than, less than or the same as the value you determined? Explain your
reasoning.
