You look at the bottom of the meniscus at eye level.
You measure the volume of a liquid on a graduated cylinder at the meniscus, which is the curved surface of the liquid.
A graduated cylinder is used for measuring liquid volumes accurately. By using a graduated cylinder, you can precisely measure out 100ml of liquid ensuring the correct volume is dispensed. The markings on the cylinder allow for easy reading and accurate measurement.
Use a graduated cylinder to measure liquid volume.
A graduated cylinder is used to find the VOLUME of a liquid.
A graduated cylinder, measuring cup, or beaker can be used to measure liquid volume accurately. It is important to use the correct measuring tool and ensure the meniscus (the curved surface of the liquid) is at the correct measurement line for accuracy.
To find the volume of the liquid, you need to subtract the volume of the ball alone from the volume of the liquid plus submerged ball. The volume of the ball should be subtracted to isolate only the volume of the liquid in the cylinder.
To measure the volume of a liquid using a graduated cylinder, you simply pour the liquid into the cylinder and read the measurement at the bottom of the meniscus, which is the curved surface of the liquid. The volume is typically measured in milliliters (mL) or cubic centimeters (cm).
To read the meniscus in a graduated cylinder when measuring liquid volume, look at the bottom of the curve where the liquid meets the cylinder. Read the measurement at eye level to get an accurate volume reading.

Observing involves visually examining the measurement markings on the graduated cylinder to determine the volume of liquid. Recording is the act of documenting this observed measurement in a data table or log for future reference or analysis.
