Questions and Answers

How is the density of air determined using a round-bottomed flask?

  • By exposing the flask to different gases and observing the reaction
  • By shaking the flask and measuring the change in pressure
  • By heating the flask and measuring the expansion of the air inside
  • By attaching the flask to a vacuum pump and measuring the change in mass and volume of air removed (correct)
  • What is the purpose of opening the clip of the round-bottomed flask underwater?

  • To measure the change in pressure inside the flask
  • To prevent any further reaction with the air inside the flask
  • To observe the expansion of air inside the flask
  • To allow water to replace the vacuum in the flask (correct)
  • What is the role of the sensitive top-pan balance in determining the density of air?

  • To analyze the chemical composition of air inside the flask
  • To heat the air inside the flask and measure its expansion
  • To test the purity of air inside the flask
  • To measure the mass of the round-bottomed flask with and without air (correct)
  • Why is a round-bottomed flask used in determining the density of air?
