Question

question 1 of 9
rate the following with respect to accuracy of measurement. ( \>\ means \is more accurate than\)
erlenmeyer flask > volumetric flask > 10 ml graduated cylinder
volumetric flask > 10 ml graduated cylinder > erlenmeyer flask
10 ml graduated cylinder > erlenmeyer flask > volumetric flask
volumetric flask > erlenmeyer flask > 10 ml graduated cylinder

Explanation:

Volumetric flasks are designed for precise volume - measurements. Graduated cylinders are less precise than volumetric flasks but more precise than Erlenmeyer flasks which are mainly for mixing and reactions, not accurate volume - measurement.

Answer:

volumetric flask > 10 mL graduated cylinder > Erlenmeyer flask
