A volumetric flask is a piece of laboratory glassware used in analytical chemistry for the preparation of solutions. It is made of glass or plastic and consists of a flat bottomed bulb with a long neck, usually fitted with a stopper. The stopper is normally made in a chemically resistant plastic such as polypropylene rather than glass. The neck has a single ring graduation mark and a label. The label should show the nominal volume, tolerance, calibration temperature, class, relevant manufacturing standard and the manufacturer’s logo. The glass or plastic is generally clear but may be amber colored for handling light sensitive compounds such as silver nitrate or vitamin A.
Volumetric flask, also known as measuring flask or graduated flask, is a kind of glassware which is used for accurate dilutions and preparation of standard solutions. Volumetric flasks are usually pear-shaped with a graduation mark on the neck. The mark indicates the volume when the solution reaches there. Volumetric flasks are various in size, but they come in standard size, 10.00 ml, 25.00 ml, 50.00 ml, 100.0 ml, 250.0 ml, 500.0 ml, etc.
The absolute error of a volumetric flask is a measure of the maximum possible difference between the indicated volume and the actual volume the flask can hold. It is typically expressed as a range, such as ±0.03 ml, indicating that the volume of liquid measured using the flask could be off by up to 0.03 ml in either direction.
To stir a solution in a volumetric flask, you can gently swirl the flask to ensure thorough mixing. Avoid vigorous shaking that could cause splashing or introduce bubbles. Be sure to mix until the solution appears uniform in color and composition.
A volumetric flask or beaker would be suitable for making a 1.0 M KCl solution. Make sure to measure accurately to achieve the desired concentration.
To transfer any remaining solute into a volumetric flask, first dissolve the solute in a small amount of solvent in a beaker. Then, rinse the sides of the beaker with more solvent to ensure all the solute is transferred, and finally pour this solution into the volumetric flask and rinse the beaker multiple times to ensure quantitative transfer.
They both do something :)
A volumetric flask is used to contain a specific volume of liquid. It is generally used in chemistry.
volumateric flask is also a type of flask

The volumetric flask is the best.

Graduated cylinders that are kind of red Volumetric Flask
No, it is not safe to autoclave a volumetric flask as the high temperature and pressure in an autoclave can damage the flask's accuracy and calibration markings. It is recommended to clean volumetric flasks using alternative methods such as washing with detergent and disinfecting with ethanol or bleach.
It can but it's no use because in a volumetric flask are desired to obtain a pure solution with a well known concentration.

The answer depends on the graduation on the flask.
