Question: You were asked to calibrate a 25 mL volumetric pipette you determine the temperature of your distilled water is exactly 23.5 Celsius you carefully determine the mass of a clean dry beaker and found it. It was 60.13 to 4 g you pulled water up to the mark and transfer this to the beaker and found that the new mass was 85.2263 g what is the actual volume of the pipette?
The actual volume of the pipette is 25 mL, as this is its nominal volume. The mass of the water can be used to calculate the volume, however. To do this, the density of water at 23.5 °C needs to be found. According to the National Institutes of Health, the density of water at 23.5 °C is 0.997173 g/mL. Therefore, the volume of water transferred can be calculated using the following equation: Volume = (Mass of water / Density of water) = (85.226 - 60.13) / 0.997173 = 25.00 mL Hence, the actual volume of the pipette is 25 mL.
