A student wanted 20.000g of a salt. which balance should the student use in order to obtain the most accurate quantity: a platform triple beam balance, a single pan triple beam balance, or a top-loading balance? explain your answer.
I think the best balance to be used would be a top-loading balance. Although, a platform triple beam balance and a single pan triple beam balance are accurate balances however they could not read up to the third decimal place which can be done in some of the top-loading balances.
The top loading balance is more accurate and can read up to three decimal places (ie its least measurement is 0. 001 g). Other given scales can not read up to that, that is why a top-loading balance is prefered here.
