The volume of Mercury is not typically measured in a measuring cylinder because it has a high density and can form a meniscus that is difficult to read accurately. Additionally, mercury is toxic and poses health risks, making it less safe to handle in open containers. Instead, specialized equipment such as a graduated pipette or a volumetric flask is often used for more precise and safer measurements.
What else can I help you with?
What is r2 when measuring the volume of a cylinder?
r2 (r2) refers to the radius of the cylinder squared.
What is the formula for measuring volume and mass in irregular shapes?
There is no formula for measuring the volume of irregular shapes. The mass can be measured by using a weighing scale.
You are a cylinder measuring 34cm x 42cm in height what is your volume?
A cylinder with a 34cm diameter and 42cm height has a volume of 38,133 cubic centimeters.
How is the volume of an inregular object measured?
The volume of an irregular object can be measured using the water displacement method. To do this, fill a graduated cylinder or overflow container with a known volume of water and then submerge the irregular object completely in the water. The increase in water level, indicated by the displacement, corresponds to the volume of the object. This method is effective for measuring objects that do not have a regular geometric shape.
Is volume displacement of a cylinder more accurate than measuring the dimensions?
Volume displacement is a good way to find the volume of a cylinder, and is probably better than simply measuring it. To measure and calculate a cylinder's volume, you must use pi, which is typically rounded to 3.14. Rounding means less accuracy, and there should be no rounding involved in volume displacement.
Can liquid be measured in volume?
a measuring cup or graduated cylinder
How will you find the volume of stone using measuring cylinder?
The volume of the stone is measured by displacement. Water is put into the measuring cylinder to a noted mark. The stone is placed in the cylinder and the water level will rise. The difference between the two levels is the volume in ml of the stone.
Is a measuring cylinder is used for volume?
Yes, a measuring cylinder is used for measuring volume. It is called a graduated cylinder
What will change when some water is poured into a measuring cylinder?
The volume reading on the measuring cylinder will increase due to the addition of the water. The meniscus, or the curve at the surface of the water, will form and the volume measured will be the amount of water that was poured in.
What is the difference between beaker and graduated cylinder in terms of measuring a volume of liquid?
beaker holds the H2o been measured by the graduated cylinder
50ml from a large beaker measured in a measuring cylinder is actually?
A small difference exist because the beaker is not calibrated for volume.
Where should you look when reading the volume of mercury in the measuring cylinder?
When reading the volume of mercury in a measuring cylinder, you should look at the bottom of the meniscus, which is the curve formed at the surface of the liquid. Ensure that your eye is level with the meniscus to avoid parallax errors. Take the reading at the lowest point of the meniscus to obtain an accurate measurement.
is it true or false the mass of an object can be measured with a graduated cylinder?
False. A graduated cylinder is used to measure volume, not mass. Mass is typically measured using a balance scale or other weight measuring devices.
How is volume determined?
By measuring it in a measuring cylinder or beaker or some container of a known volume.
What instrument measures milliliters?
A small graduated cylinder or beaker.graduated cylinderA measuring cylinder, a volumetric flask, a pipette, a burette. In the kitchen a measuring jug.The volume of a liquid can be measured by a graduated cylinder.To measure most liquids in mL you can use a graduated cylinder
What laboratory equipment should I use for measuring volume?
A measuring cylinder
Would volume be measured with a meter stick a graduated surrender or a balance scale?
Volume is typically measured with a graduated cylinder, as it is specifically designed to measure the amount of liquid in milliliters or liters accurately. A meter stick measures length, while a balance scale measures mass, not volume. Therefore, for measuring volume, a graduated cylinder is the appropriate tool.
