This flask is used to collect the filtrate from the filter.

Normally cork or rubber is used as a stopper in a flask.
A flat bottom flask would be an Ehrlemeyer flask, which is used quite a lot by chemists.anf
A Boss is used to hold a Florence flask or a Conical flask on a retort stand.
A volumetric flask is used to contain a specific volume of liquid. It is generally used in chemistry.
A Buchner flask is a flat-bottomed flask used in filtration setups with a sidearm to attach a vacuum source. A filter flask has a sidearm with an angled neck to connect to a vacuum pump for filtration. A side-arm flask typically has a single sidearm used for connecting to other glassware or apparatus.
A rubber band can be used to secure a flask from falling.
The filtering flask is used to collect the solution resulted from a filtration.
An Erlenmeyer Flask is commonly used for chemistry experiements.
They're generally used as boiling flasks, particularly when the heat source is an electric mantle or steam bath.
