What is the curved surface of a liquid in a graduated cylinder?
Meniscus.
Curved surface of a liquid?
Meniscus
Why is a cylinder the best shape for holding liquids?
The volume of liquid in a cylinder is directly proportional to its height. And the height can easily be scaled and etched onto the side of a cylinder. and fluid containers creates statics voltage as fluid moves inside of it. so there should not have corners ( it reseves static voltage) spark can create through the corners.
How do you know that the rock in the figure with the graduated cylinder has a volume of 10 mL?
The level of the liquid in the cylinder rose by 10 mL when the rock was submerged in the liquid.
What is the liquid curve in a graduated cylinder called?
The liquid curve is called a meniscus.
What equipment do you use to accurately measure liquid?
a gratuated cylinder in which you measure the volume of a liquid(volume same as mass)
What is the the bottom of a curved line in a graduated cylinder?
The "bottom of a curved line" made by the liquid in a graduated cylinder could be called the "measuring line" or "reference line" in the application of that piece of labratory equipment. The curved surface of the liquid itself is called the meniscus, and we look to the bottom of the meniscus to make our reading as to the volume of the liquid in the graduated cylinder. The liquid in the cylinder "grabs" the sides of the cylinder and "pulls itself up" just a bit, and that creates the curve in the surface of the liquid. And that curve, the meniscus (which is from the Greek word for crescent), leaves us with a problem: where do we "read" the volume marked off by the graduations along the side of the cylinder? And the answer is, "At the bottom of the meniscus."

When using the measuring cylinder do you talk the measurement at the side of the cured surface or the curved surface?
I think you are talking about a graduated cylinder. When measuring liquids in a grad. cylinder you should read at the bottom of the miniscus ( the curved surface of the water or other liquid).
How do you use measuring cylinder?
A graduated cylinder is used to measure liquid volume in milliliters, mL. When you place a liquid into a glass graduated cylinder, you will see that the "line" at the top of the column of liquid is actually curved downward. This is called the meniscus. When you measure the liquid volume, you record the volume in mL at the bottom of the meniscus.
What must be read very carfully when reading a liquid in a graduated cylinder?
the meniscus (the curved part of the liquid). For some liquids the meniscus is curved up so you read the bottom (assuming you can see through it to see the bottom), for some liquids it curves down so you read the top.
Uses of a graduated cylinder?
1. Look at the liquid at eye level 2. Measure from the meniscus (the curved line at the surface of the liquid) 3. Be sure to measure your intervals (the value of each measurement line on the cylinder)
What is the scientific name for the curved water surface above the rim of a glass?
The curve you see on top of a liquid in a cylinder is called the meniscus and is due to the difference between the attractive force between the liquid molecules themselves and between the liquid molecules and the wall of the cylinder, as well as capillary action. When the molecules of the liquid have a greater attraction to the cylinder wall than to themselves, the meniscus is concave and the surface of the liquid curved downwards. Water drawn up a narrow glass cylinder has a concave meniscus. When the molecules of the liquid have a greater attraction to themselves than to the cylinder wall, the meniscus is convex and curves upwards. Mercury in a glass thermometer or barometer has a convex meniscus.
