because it givs good readings
A volumetric flask is a piece of laboratory glassware used in analytical chemistry for the preparation of solutions. It is made of glass or plastic and consists of a flat bottomed bulb with a long neck, usually fitted with a stopper. The stopper is normally made in a chemically resistant plastic such as polypropylene rather than glass. The neck has a single ring graduation mark and a label. The label should show the nominal volume, tolerance, calibration temperature, class, relevant manufacturing standard and the manufacturer’s logo. The glass or plastic is generally clear but may be amber colored for handling light sensitive compounds such as silver nitrate or vitamin A.
A volumetric flask is used for measuring precise volumes of liquids because it has a narrow neck and a specific volume marking, allowing for accurate and consistent measurements.
They both do something :)
You would use a graduated cylinder or a volumetric flask to measure 1cm3 of alcohol accurately. These tools are designed to measure precise volumes of liquid.
Did you mean 250 mL of 0.15 M Na2CO3? (It's impossible to make a 15 M Na2CO3 solution, as Na2CO3 is not that soluble.) Yes, you can assume that this will be an aqueous solution. Steps. 1. Calculate the mass of solid Na2CO3 needed. 2. Place this mass of Na2CO3 in the volumetric flask. 3. Add some water and swirl to dissolve the Na2CO3. 4. Carefully add more water until the total volume of solution is 250 mL, as indicated by the line etched on the neck of the volumetric flask. 250 mL x 1 L x 0.15 mol Na2CO3 x 105.99 g Na2CO3 = 4.0 g Na2CO3 needed ........... 1000 mL ......... 1 L ..................1 mol Na2CO3
Volumetric flasks are designed to hold specific volumes of liquid accurately for dilution or mixing purposes. Storing solutions in a volumetric flask can lead to evaporation, contamination, and inaccuracies in concentration due to the narrow neck of the flask making it difficult to access the solution for further use. It is best to store solutions in appropriate containers designed for long-term storage.
The volumetric flask is the best.

Graduated cylinders that are kind of red Volumetric Flask
It can but it's no use because in a volumetric flask are desired to obtain a pure solution with a well known concentration.

As the pipette is far more accurate than a flask by a factor 10 to 100 one should NOT use a volumetric flask except for standard volumes over 100 ml.

Well, look there. The image associated with your question actually SHOWS the answer.Erlenmeyer flasks are generally marked in units of mL. These should be taken as approximations at best; if you need an accurate amount, use a volumetric flask.

A flask is essentially a bottle. * In a labs, glass flasks (Erlenmeyer, Florence) are used for mixing heating and storing solutions. Sometimes they are graduated to show the volume of material that they contain.* Vacuum flasks are more robist, ususally with a side arm to remove gases * Insulated flasks keep things cold like liquid nitrogen
