What is the use of a pear-shaped flask?


It’s a flask of the “volumetric” category, that is, shaped and marked to give precise readings of liquid volume. It has the shape of a pear, and because of that shape, namely, the rounded “bowl” with flat bottom, the elongated narrow neck, and the fill lines around the circumference, a laboratory worker can get very accurate readings.
