Explanation:
It is known that to measure the volume of regular or irregular solids we can put the solid into a liquid. And then, the volume of liquid displaced will be equal to the volume of irregular solid.
Also, we can measure the volume of a gas with the help of displacement.
For example, in a syringe the volume of gas displaced will be equal to the volume occupied by the fluid.
If a matter is soluble in liquid, then we cannot measure its correct volume.
Therefore, we can conclude that the displacement method for measuring volume:
- Can only be used to measure the volume of solids.
- Is the most precise way to measure the volume of a gas.
