Answer
Try this one (by Wichen)...

The right-hand end of the room contains a water vat, two buckets and a balance-rock.
Apparently, you need to place the proper weight on the balance.
There are only so many possibilities, 1, 2, 3, 4, or 5.

You can eliminate 3 and 5 because they are too easy - the small bucket is 3 liters and the large one 5.
You can eliminate 2 because it's also too easy (by filling the big one and pouring it into the small one.)
One would also be unlikely, so let's try to come up with a bucket containing 4.

Do this: Fill the small bucket and pour it into the large one.
Fill the small one again, and pour it into the large one again.
Now, the large bucket contains 5, and the small bucket has the remaining one liter.
Set the small bucket down (by clicking on the measured flasks)
Pick up the large bucket, and pour it down the drain between the vat and the balance.
Set the large bucket down.
Pick up the small bucket and pour the one liter of water into the large one.
Fill the small bucket, and pour it into the large one, adding three to one. That's Four!
