The point of the experiment was to test how accurate and precise five pieces of lab glassware--an erlenmeyer flask, a pipette, a buret, and a graduated cylinder, and a 50mL beaker-- were for measuring water volume (mL). The tools used to determine the precision and accuracy were an electric scale, the provided 5 pieces of glassware, an extra beaker, a calculator, and 10 mL of H2O or water (distilled) per trial. The way to test the accuracy of a tool was to find how close the experimental volume of water in the given glassware was to the given theoretical volume, 10mL. Volume can be calculated with the formula mass/density = volume with the knowledge that water has a theoretical density of 0.997 g/mL under the lab conditions provided. To find
