What is the chemical definition of meniscus?
It is from the Greek meaning crescent. When you measure the volume of water (or similar liquid) in a measuring cylinder, if you look carefully you will notice the surface water level is not perfectly flat. It will be curved, this is called the meniscus. To accurately measure the volume you must look at the meniscus at eye level and take the reading at the bottom of the meniscus. The meniscus occurs because water is attracted to the glass/plastic. All equipment that is intended to measure volume will take into account the meniscus, as long as you take your reading with the meniscus at eye level. The measurement must be done at eye level in order to ensure no parallax error. NOTE mercury's meniscus is convex rather than concave, as it is not attracted the glass/plastic.
What is Ossified excrescence medial aspect right proximal tibia?
