To measure the volume of liquid in a pipette, you should read the volume markings on the side of the pipette. Ensure the liquid level is at the calibration mark for an accurate measurement. It is essential to keep the pipette vertical during measurement to prevent errors in volume readings.
Usually the pipette will have volume markings up the side of it. If it does not, fill the pippette, and slowly empty it into however many teaspoons are required. Each teaspoon is 5ml.

A TD calibrated pipette is a type of pipette that is calibrated "to deliver" a specific volume of liquid. This means that the pipette is designed to dispense the intended volume of liquid accurately and consistently. It differs from a TC (to contain) pipette which is calibrated to contain the specified volume but may not deliver it precisely.
A pipette is a laboratory tool used to measure and transfer small volumes of liquid. It works by drawing liquid into a calibrated glass or plastic tube and then dispensing it accurately. Pipettes come in various sizes and designs for specific applications in science, medicine, and industry.
A pipette measures a certain set volume of a liquid (often a multiple of 5mL), normally for use in titrations.
Graduated cylinder: Typically used for measuring liquid volume with good accuracy. Beaker: Can be used for approximate measurements of liquid volume. Pipette: Allows for precise measurement and transfer of liquid volume. Burette: Commonly used in titration experiments to measure liquid volume delivered. Volumetric flask: Used to prepare solutions of known precise volumes.
