The standard liquid for measuring volume in the metric system is water.
The smallest amount of liquid that can be accurately measured in a graduated cylinder will depend on the smallest graduation markings on the cylinder. Generally, for most graduated cylinders, the smallest measurable volume is around 0.1 mL.
Liquid volume is typically measured in milliliters (mL) or liters (L) in the metric system. You can use measuring cups, beakers, or graduated cylinders to measure liquid volume accurately. Just ensure that you are reading the volume at the meniscus, the curve at the top of the liquid level.
