Why we have to put pumic stones in the bottom of the flask when we heat the solution ?

Answers (1)

Pieces of pumice stone are added to water before heating to avoid bumping of liquid when the temperature rises. When water boils it releases energy as bubbles. If the bubbles do not form, the water can super heat and possibly explode.
