(b) Explain the importance of the string in measuring the volume of the piece of metal.
Precise volumes must always be measured at constant temperature because, due to thermal expansion, changes in temperature are followed by changes in volume. For example water at 10 °C has much smaller volume than at 80 °C. Volumetric vessels are usually calibrated for 20 °C (25 °C in the USA).
