Yes. First you have to know the weight of the container you are going to use, then you put the liquid in the container and weigh it. Then subtract the weight of the container from the total and you will have the weight of the liquid.

First, you measure the liquid with the container. After that, measure ONLY the container and then subtract the container itself from the container with the liquid. FOR EXAMPLE:

If my apple juice w/ the container weighed 70 grams, and the container weighed 10 grams, the apple juice weighed 60 grams. :)

How do you weigh small screws?

Get a scale appropriate for the amount you wish to weigh. Get a container to put the small objects (screws) in. Weigh the container while it is empty, many modern digital scales allow you to "Zero" the scale with your container on it making for an easy short cut. Write down the weight of the container. Put your screws in the container and weigh the container and the screws. Subtract the weight of the container

What does it mean to zero an electronic balance?

Usually you add a container to the balance then zero it. Then when you add something to the container e.g. a liquid or solid then when you place the container back on the balance the reading shows you how much you have added. Saves having to work out how much you added by weighing the container, weighing the container plus contents and then subtracting. Removes one possible source of error i.e. incorrect subtraction of values. Also faster/easier when trying to measure out a specific amount of a substance.
