Which tool was most likely used in a procedure if the lab report shows that approximately 300 mL of water was used?

A beaker is commonly used to hold and pour a relatively large amount of liquid, such as approximately 300 mL of water. A volumetric flask, pipette, or graduated cylinder is generally used when a more precise volume measurement is needed or when handling smaller measured amounts. Therefore, the most likely tool is a beaker.
