Find its mass using a beam balance,and volume by a measuring can full of water,and divide both to get volume
No, the density of a rubber stopper is less than the density of water. Rubber has a lower density compared to water, so a rubber stopper would float on water.
The volume of the stopper can be calculated by subtracting the initial volume of the water from the final volume. In this case, the volume of the rubber stopper would be 30.9 ml - 25 ml = 5.9 ml. Now, divide the mass of the rubber stopper (8.46 g) by its volume (5.9 ml) to find its density. Density = Mass/Volume, so the density of the rubber stopper would be 8.46g / 5.9ml = 1.43 g/ml.
Wetting the glass tubing before inserting it into a stopper helps create a better seal by reducing the risk of air pockets. The water acts as a lubricant, making it easier to insert the glass tube into the stopper without damaging either component.
To remove a glass stopper, start by gently tapping the sides with a rubber mallet to loosen it. Then, carefully twist the stopper while pulling it upwards to remove it from the bottle. If the stopper is still stuck, try using hot water to expand the glass before attempting to remove it again.
The density of a rubber stopper is typically less than the density of water, which is 1 g/cm³. Rubber stoppers usually have a density ranging from 0.9-1.1 g/cm³, making them less dense than water and able to float on its surface.
The buoyant force acting on the glass stopper in water is 0.4 N (2.4 N - 2 N). The buoyant force is equal to the weight of the water displaced by the stopper, so the volume of water displaced is 0.4 kg (0.4 N / 1000 N/kg). Using the formula density = mass/volume, the density of the glass stopper is 2400 kg/m^3 (2.4 kg / 0.001 m^3).
Density = mass/volume so the density of the stopper is 16.8/7.6 = 2.21 g/cm3.

Grease the top of the bottle!
The equation to find the density of a material is density = mass/volume. To find the density of glass, you would need to measure the mass of a sample of glass and divide it by the volume of the sample. The density of glass can vary depending on the type of glass.
The volume of the stopper can be calculated by subtracting the initial volume of the water from the final volume. In this case, the volume of the rubber stopper would be 30.9 ml - 25 ml = 5.9 ml.

If strong bases are present in the glass-stopper bottles, they may react with the glass and etch it or change the concentration of the base. Hence plastic-stopper bottles are used for bases.

Over time, the sodium hydroxide will react with the smidges of carbon dioxide in air to produce sodium carbonate, the white, crusty powder that you find around the rim of plastic capped stock bottles (for example). This powder will either prevent the ground glass stopper from sealing properly and exposing the contents to more air, or will in fact cement the ground glass stopper in the bottle, and make it impossible to remove.
Run warm to hot water over the neck of the container. This will expand the neck and the stopper should come out.
