Question

Carefully weigh out about 125mg of Vitamin C and place it in a 100-mL beaker in approximately 50mL of water. Pour the solution into a 100mL volumetric flask. Rinse the beaker into the flask two times, using about 10 mL of water each time. -What is the concentration of the Vitamin C standard solution that you are making? -What is the initial concentration of Vitamin C? Use a clean 5mL auto-pipet to transfer exactly 5mL of this solution into a 100mL volumetric flask. -What is this diluted concentration?

Explanation / Answer

That is a very eccentric procedure and so the concentration remains vague.
Why was the first flask not filled to its mark at some point
