Law of lower and upper meniscus levels in determining liquid solution?
In measuring liquids using graduated cylinder, there are two things to consider. 1.) CLEAR LIQUID and 2.)

For the COLORED LIQUID (e.g. soy sauce, ketchup, etc. ) the upper meniscus is get, since there is only one meniscus there.. (meaning there is no upper & lower meniscus.)

What is a meniscus is and how it is used to measure liquids?
A meniscus is the curve of a liquid. Like when you are filling a glass of water, if you continue to put water in the glass after it has reached the top, then the extra water will go above the glass in a curved shape. When you are measuring liquids in for example a graduated cylinder, you would take the measurement from the bottom of the meniscus. I hope this helps!
