The expected result is that the egf will slowly get outside the flask

What are the safety precautions to ensure when using Erlenmeyer flask?
When using an Erlenmeyer flask, it's important to take these safety precautions: Always wear personal protective equipment (PPE) such as gloves, goggles, and a lab coat when handling chemicals or other potentially hazardous materials. Make sure that you are aware of the properties of the chemicals or materials you are working with, and that you are handling them in accordance with the appropriate safety guidelines. Use a Bunsen burner or other heat source in a well-ventilated area to avoid inhaling toxic fumes. Use a thermometer or other temperature measuring device to ensure that the contents of the Erlenmeyer flask do not get too hot. Always use a flame-arresting wire gauze when heating the flask with a Bunsen burner. Use a clamp stand or other support device to keep the flask steady, to avoid spills or accidents. Be aware of the reaction taking place in the flask and if you see any unusual behavior stop the experiment immediately and follow the emergency procedures. Always keep a fire extinguisher or chemical spill kit nearby in case of an emergency. Clean and properly store the flask after use.
Can you use a erlenmeyer flask to calculate the density of a liquid?
You can, but the volume will not be as accurate as using a graduated cylinder, and will probably give you an inaccurate density.
What is the use and definition of an Erlenmeyer flask?
The triangular shape of the Erlenmeyer flask aids in the mixing of the liquid inside. When you swirl the flask, the liquid moves up the sides without coming out the top. They are used in applications where solutions must be mixed multiple times. When doing a titration analysis, small amounts of reactant are added to a solution, usually until an indicator changes color, and the solution must be mixed after every addition. When making a dilution of a stock solution, the easiest way is to add a measured amount of stock to a measured amount of solvent in an Erlenmeyer and swirl to ensure thorough mixing. Erlenmeyer flasks are often used to heat liquids with a Bunsen burner. For that purpose, the flask is usually placed on a ring held to a ring stand by means of a ring clamp. A wire gauze mesh or pad is usually placed between the ring and the flask.
