Why is the mass of the irregular object measured before placing it in the Eureka can?
when the object is placed in the water, it will get wet and influence the mass reading
it is quicker
it doesn't matter which order you do it as long as both mass and volume are measured
measuring the mass of the object after it has been in the water will result in a mass reading which is too low.

A student drops the irregular object into the Eureka can. How could they improve the accuracy of this step?
when the object is dropped into the Eureka can, refill it with approximately the right amount of water that was spilt
place the object in the Eureka can and then fill with water to prevent water being spilt
carefully lower the object into the full Eureka can to prevent water splashing out
