Question

A student filled the following pieces of equipment up to the 10 mL mark on with water. The empty mass of each was determined and after filling the mass of each piece with water was also measured. Calculate the mass of water in each piece of equipment and record in the table above. (Show all calculations) Which instrument allowed the student to determine the most accurate measurement of mass for 10 mL of water at room temperature? Explain why you chose this instrument. Does this agree with your assessment with your own data determined in this lab?

Explanation / Answer

5.

10 mL graduated cylinder allowed the student to determine the most accurate measurement of mass for 10 mL of water at room temperature. In this instrument, the mass of water (9.868 g) is closest to 10 g (theoretical value obtained from density of water (1 g/mL) and volume (10mL)).
