Calculating volume by combining the volume of simple shapes
A chemistry student in lab needs to fill a temperature-control tank with water. The tank measures 29.0 cm long by 17.0 cm wide by 12.0 cm deep.
In addition, as shown in the sketch below, the student needs to allow 2.0 cm between the top of the tank and the top of the water, and a round-bottom flask
with a diameter of 9.5 cm will be just barely submerged in the water.
Calculate the volume of water in liters which the student needs. Round your answer to the nearest 0.01 L.
