First, use the equipment you are told to use to take in the amount of liquid you need. (Example: Measure 45.00 cm3 of FA1 using a measuring cylinder into the volumetric flask labeled FA3).
Second, wash or rinse the beaker using DISTILLED WATER and pour ALL the washings or rinsing inside the volumetric flask labeled FA3. This ensures that all the FA1 is inside the volumetric flask.
Third, use the distilled water bottle to fill the volumetric flask till the 250 cm3 mark (most commonly an etch on the neck of the flask). To do this quickly yet precisely: remove the cap of the water bottle and pour distilled water until you reach the beginning of the neck. Then screw the cap back on and slowly squeeze the bottle ensuring you make the water stream flow on the neck of the flask to ensure no splashing occurs and that the flask fills in a gentle way (not like the Indian ocean amidst monsoon season).
Fourth, screw the volumetric flask's lid back on, and MAKE TRIPLE SURE IT'S CLOSED or else you'll have acid all over you and ******* up your exam and coming to this post and crying that I made you fail.. Then slowly invert the flask a number of times and between each invert swirl or shake the flask while holding it firmly (That's 320 grams of load your holding their so don't under estimate it ).
Fifth, voila there you go you've just completed your dilution both quickly and most importantly accurately.
Any questions feel free to post here and I will try to answer as quickly as possible as I have to study (DUH)..
GOOD LUCK EVERYONE <3 <3 <3 <3
