normally, a pipette is only used for a few drops of a solution. A biuret is bigger and it can range from 10cm3 to 50 at the max. However whenever the quantity of the solution u r measuring is above 20cm3 it is advisable to put it in a measuring cylinder.

Fill a large basin full of water. Invert  another basin and completely submerge it in the first one so that it is full of water with no air bubbles. Now put the can of coke unside the upturned submerged 2nd basin and open it. The volume of gas releaSED is the answer. This can be found by using a calibrated beaker as the upturned 2nd container.

fill a beaker or a measuring cylinder with water to the brim. place it in another bowl full of water but turn it upside down inside the water without letting the air bubbles get in. submerge the can under the water and place it under the beaker/measuring cylinder (make sure no air bubbles get in and the beaker covers the top portion of the can only). open the can and when the gas bubbles are released, it is trapped by the measuring cylinder and gas replaces the water inside the measuring cylinder. take the reading of the empty space inside the measuring cylinder. that is the volume of the gas released.

there is no air inside the beaker because it is filled with water
