Problem

Two volumetric flasks: a 100 cm³ flask and a 250 cm³ flask, both containing a yellow liquid. ▲ Volumetric flasks of

100 \text{ cm}^3 \pm 0.20 \text{ cm}^3

and

250 \text{ cm}^3 \pm 0.30 \text{ cm}^3

20^\circ \text{C}

. (Note millilitre 'ml' as marked is the same as

\text{cm}^3

, which is the correct SI unit). Which flask has the greater percentage uncertainty?
