It depends on the tube's construction. Assuming a graduation every one millimetre, a 50 mm high tube can measure to +/- 0.5 ml accuracy. A 200 mm high (very thin!) tube, also with one mm graduations, is four times as accurate.
You need to state the smallest actual graduation to get your answer, and be aware that the liquid's meniscus affects reading confidence.

What is the use of gas measuring tube?
barometer
What is a gas- collecting tube?
A gas-collecting tube is made of glass and has a cylinder shape with a valve at one end of the cylinder. Most gas-collecting containers have a gauged volume on them. They are used in science for the purpose of taking samples of a gas.
What gas is evolved when a few crystals of potassium nitrate are heated in a hard glass test tube?
Nitrogen dioxide and oxygen are released.
What is a constant-volume gas thermometer?
A constant volume gas thermometer is a thermometer that uses the variations of pressure in gas at different temperatures to measure the temperature. A liquid can then be put into tubes, and rather than measuring the distance of a small quantity, the distance between two parts of the curving tube are used to measure the temperature.
Is NEON a kind of glass or gas?
Neon is a gas.

Why when you blow the top of the glass tube the ink will move up?
When you blow the top of the glass tube, the gas pressure which act on the ink will reduced and causes the ink to move up.

What are neon signs made out of?
They are made out of glass as a the tube and there is no active filament what actually creates the glowing is there is a gas inside the tube and the electricity that runs to it creates the gas to ionize which creates light.

How floroscent tubelight works?
The glass tube is filled with mercury gas. Electricity causes the gas molecules to vibrate faster. The increased motion excites phosphorous in the tube and causes it to give off visible light.
When you use hydrogen gas the water rises in the measuring tube why?
Hydrogen gas (H2) is not very soluble in water, and so it will displace the water in the container, thus making the level rise.
Why collect hydrogen gas in a test tube rather than glass jar?
It is so it is easy to burn (with a squeaky pop!)
What A low pressure gas filled glass tube which generates a glowing beam between cathode and anode?
Cathode ray.
What gas is evolved when a few crystals of potassium nitrate are heated in a hard glass test tube?
Nitrogen dioxide and oxygen are released.
Is a glass gas?
Glass is a solid, not a gas.
