  Flask - LoveToKnow 1911
"Flask" is also used in metal-founding of a wooden frame or case to contain part of the mould.
The word "flagon," which is by derivation a doublet of "flask," is usually applied to a larger type of vessel for holding liquor, more particularly to a type of wine-bottle with a short neck and circular body with flattened sides.
The word is also used of a jug-shaped vessel with a handle, spout and lid, into which wine may be decanted from the bottle for use at table, and of a similarly shaped vessel to contain the Eucharistic wine till it is poured into the chalice.

  Florence flask - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
A Florence flask (also known as a round bottom flask or a boiling flask) is a piece of laboratory glassware.
It is a round or flat-bottom flask with a long neck.

 Erlenmeyer flask - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The main advantages in an Erlenmeyer flask are that it is less likely to tip over than a Florence flask and the smaller neck slows evaporative loss better than a beaker.
However the main difference is that conical flasks may be stoppered using rubber bungs, so as the contents of the flask may be mixed or transported safely.
The flask is not usually used when heating substances vigorously, this task usually being left to the Florence flask.

 Dihydrogen Diffusion
An apparatus is constructed so that dihydrogen is able to diffuse into a flask and thereby increase the gas pressure forcing liquid to be expelled from the flask through an exit tube.

This pressure increase accounts for both the expulsion of the water from the apparatus when dihydrogen is first applied and the sucking in of air when the dihydrogen is first removed.
