It uses smaller segments of measurement making it more accurate
because it counts by ones wich is more exact...
Depending on how accurate you want to be you can use a variety of methods. Common methods include the following (with increasing level of accuracy) 1) graduated cylinder 2) volumetric pipette. 3) Calibrated micro-pipette (may require more than one transfer)
There's not too much of a difference between a graduated cylinder and a measuring cup, other than 'graduated cylinder' is more science talk.
If you measure properly, the amount of water does not change. Measurement with whatever graduated cylinder you choose will not alter the amount of liquid measured. Most people choose to measure once with a larger one, but if the amount of liquid falls between the measurement lines, you can measure the "leftover" with a smaller cylinder and find the exact answer.
A graduated cylinder is a piece of laboratory glassware used to accurately measure out volumes of chemicals for use in reactions. They are generally more accurate and precise for this purpose than beakers or erlenmeyer flasks, although not as precise as a volumetric flask or volumetric pipet. They come in a variety of sizes for different volumes, typically 10 mL, 25 mL, 50 mL, or 100 mL and up to as large as 1 or 2 liters.Determine the volume contained in a graduated cylinder by reading the bottom of the meniscus at eye level.In other words, holding the graduated cylinder at eye level, the bottom of the curved surface of the liquid (called the meniscus) is where you read off the mark on the graduated cylinder to determine the volume properly.
Graduated Cylinder - Marbles
Because the smaller the cylinder the more accurate the measurement.
A graduated cylinder has a constant diameter and a printed scale on its side that indicates volume inside the graduated cylinder for any given liquid level. A flask has none of these advantages.
the most accurate would be a graduated cylinder but there are beakers and other things that aren't as accurate
A pipette is more accurate. It can easily deliver one drop at a time.
The graduated cylinder is used to measure liquid volume. These cylinders are said to be more precise and accurate over beakers and flasks.
to make an accurate liquid volume
a graduated cylinder
A grade A burette (more accurate) or a graduated cylinder.
A graduated cylinder is utilized to get a more precise measurement of the volume of a liquid. They're also known as measuring cylinders.
It's a graduated cylinder.
Put it in a graduated cylinder. a) Find a graduated cylinder big enough to hold a can of Coke. b) Make sure it has a small scale. (Smaller scales are more accurate.) c) Fill the graduated cylinder with water to a mark on the cylinder. d) Find how much higher the water is when you drop the can in.
Technically, for a liquid, one could use Erlenmeyer flasks or beakers to measure volume; however, it will not be as accurate as a graduated cylinder. A buret can also be used to measure the volume of a liquid if more accurate results are needed.
