Similarities and Differences between Volumetric flask and round bottom flask

As we know that a lot of equipment of chemistry laboratory. Such as,

volumetric flask and round bottom flask. There are many things are similar and
also diferrences between a volumetric flask and a round bottom flask. A
Volumetric flask is made of glass, and so is a round bottom flask. Not only a
volumetric flask but also a round bottom flask have neck. Both a volumetric
flask and a round bottom flask are expensive.
A volumetric flask come in various sizes and capacity from 5 ml 5L of
liquid is different from a round bottom flask has sizes and capacity from 250 ml
2000 ml of liquid. A volumetric flask just has single neck in comparison, a
round bottom has various types of the neck like single neck, double neck and
triple neck. A volumetric flask is used for holding liquids similar to a round
bottom flask functions for holding liquids. A Volumetric flask has a long neck
with a fill line on the neck because they are generally used for
measurement or reactions and not heating or boiling, on the other hand a round
bottom flask has a short neck because it is designed for uniform heating,
boiling, distillation and ease of swirling solutions. The bottom of a volumetric
flask is flat for sitting on a table or burner, but the bottom of a round bottom
flask is round. The rounded design of the bottom is such that a Bunsen burner
can easily heat the solution within.
