- You set out to determine the density of lead in the laboratory. Using a top loading balance to determine the mass and the water displacement method (Study Question 41) to determine the volume of a variety of pieces of lead, you calculate the following densities: 11.6 g/cm3, 11.8 g/cm3, 11.5 g/cm3, and 12.0 g/cm3. You consult a reference book and find that the accepted value for the density of lead is 11.3 g/cm3.

Each volumetric flask has several calibration marks (on the neck of the flask), so measuring of several volumes is possible. A volumetric flask is used when a graduated cylinder is not available.

A graduated cylinder measures volume more precisely and accurately than a volumetric flask.arrow_forwardIn all volumetric glassware (e.g., pipet, buret, volumetric flasks, graduated cylinder, etc.), it is necessary to read the level of a liquid. A liquid in a small-diameter container will form a meniscus or curve at the surface of the liquid. How would you properly read the volume of the liquid in volumetric flasks and transfer pipets? In graduated cylinders?arrow_forward
