things needed: graduate cylinder, water, and the rock
1) fill the graduated cylinder to the top with water
2) next, take the rock and slowly emerge it into the water ( water will spill over the top of the glass so do so in a sink or outside on the cement )
3) last, the amount of water left in the cylinder is the volume of your rock
To determine the volume of an irregular object using graduated cylinders, you fill a graduated cylinder with water right to the top, then submerge the object in the water. Measure the water that overflows using a second graduated cylinder, and read the water level in it in cc's or cubic inches. That is the object's volume.
This is a poor question. There is no way such a method can measure the volume of a sugar cube, for example, because it will dissolve in the water.
By pouring a set amount of water into the cylinder then addin the object and seeing how much the volume changes. The amount of change is the volume of the object.
It is the displacement method.
You would measure liquids with a graduated cylinder.You would measure liquids with a graduated cylinder.
Fill the graduated cylinder with water, and measure the volume. Now put the item in, measure the water's volume again, and take the difference
For mass, you would use a triple-beam balance. For volume, you would either use a graduated cylinder (for liquids), calculate the displacement with a graduated cylinder (for an odd-shaped solid), or calculate it using the equation for volume (for a regularly-shaped solid).

The volume of a liquid.

Using a 10 ML graduated cylinder you can read 2 decimal places. This is also measuring volume.
Well, that depends on what cylinder you are using. For example, a graduated cylinder is used to measure the volume of a liquid, the measure of a solid by displacement, or for measuring quantities of volumes to be added into a mixture or chemical reaction.
For mass, you would use a triple-beam balance. For volume, you would either use a graduated cylinder (for liquids), calculate the displacement with a graduated cylinder (for an odd-shaped solid), or calculate it using the equation for volume (for a regularly-shaped solid).
well with a graduated cylinder you can measure liquid
The property is volume, more specifically of a liquid, which can be measured using a graduated cylinder.
You can find the volume of an object bigger than the graduated cylinder by using the displacement method using a beaker. The object also can be measured with a rules length, width, and height.
